public Object clone()
In the following code shows how to use TreeMap.clone() method.
/*w w w .ja v a2 s . c o m*/ import java.util.TreeMap; public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { TreeMap<Integer, String> treemap = new TreeMap<Integer, String> (); TreeMap<Integer, String> treemapclone = new TreeMap<Integer, String> (); // populating tree map treemap.put(2, "two"); treemap.put(1, "one"); treemap.put(3, "three"); treemap.put(6, "six"); treemap.put(5, "from java2s.com"); // cloning tree map System.out.println("Cloning tree map"); treemapclone=(TreeMap)treemap.clone(); System.out.println("Original map: "+ treemap); System.out.println("Cloned map: "+ treemapclone); } }
The code above generates the following result.
