Public Method toString

String toString()

Overrides:

_INSERT_METHOD_SIGNATURE_HERE_

Description:

Returns a string representation of this map. The string representation consists of a list of key-value mappings in the order returned by the map's entrySet view's iterator, enclosed in braces ("{}"). Adjacent mappings are separated by the characters ", " (comma and space). Each key-value mapping is rendered as the key followed by an equals sign ("=") followed by the associated value. Keys and values are converted to strings as by String.valueOf(Object).

This implementation creates an empty string buffer, appends a left brace, and iterates over the map's entrySet view, appending the string representation of each map.entry in turn. After appending each entry except the last, the string ", " is appended. Finally a right brace is appended. A string is obtained from the stringbuffer, and returned.
