Hashtable

Hashtable是Dictionary的子类，其定义如下：

public class Hashtable
    extends Dictionary
    implements Map, Cloneable, java.io.Serializable {

无参构造函数的定义如下：

    /**
     * Constructs a new, empty hashtable with a default initial capacity (11)
     * and load factor (0.75).
     */
    public Hashtable() {
        this(11, 0.75f);
    }

    /**
     * Constructs a new, empty hashtable with the specified initial
     * capacity and the specified load factor.
     *
     * @param      initialCapacity   the initial capacity of the hashtable.
     * @param      loadFactor        the load factor of the hashtable.
     * @exception  IllegalArgumentException  if the initial capacity is less
     *             than zero, or if the load factor is nonpositive.
     */
    public Hashtable(int initialCapacity, float loadFactor) {
        if (initialCapacity < 0)
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("Illegal Capacity: "+
                                               initialCapacity);
        if (loadFactor <= 0 || Float.isNaN(loadFactor))
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("Illegal Load: "+loadFactor);

        if (initialCapacity==0)
            initialCapacity = 1;
        this.loadFactor = loadFactor;
        table = new Entry<?,?>[initialCapacity];
        threshold = (int)Math.min(initialCapacity * loadFactor, MAX_ARRAY_SIZE + 1);
    }

解释：HashTable中hash数组的默认大小是11，默认负载因子是0.75。

put()

方法的定义如下：

    /**
     * Maps the specified {@code key} to the specified
     * {@code value} in this hashtable. Neither the key nor the
     * value can be {@code null}. 

     *
     * The value can be retrieved by calling the {@code get} method
     * with a key that is equal to the original key.
     *
     * @param      key     the hashtable key
     * @param      value   the value
     * @return     the previous value of the specified key in this hashtable,
     *             or {@code null} if it did not have one
     * @exception  NullPointerException  if the key or value is
     *               {@code null}
     * @see     Object#equals(Object)
     * @see     #get(Object)
     */
    public synchronized V put(K key, V value) {
        // Make sure the value is not null
        if (value == null) {
            throw new NullPointerException();
        }

        // Makes sure the key is not already in the hashtable.
        Entry<?,?> tab[] = table;
        int hash = key.hashCode();
        int index = (hash & 0x7FFFFFFF) % tab.length;
        @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
        Entry entry = (Entry)tab[index];
        for(; entry != null ; entry = entry.next) {

                V old = entry.value;
                entry.value = value;
                return old;
            }
        }

        addEntry(hash, key, value, index);
        return null;
    }

    private void addEntry(int hash, K key, V value, int index) {
        Entry<?,?> tab[] = table;
        if (count >= threshold) {
            // Rehash the table if the threshold is exceeded
            rehash();

            tab = table;
            hash = key.hashCode();

        }

        // Creates the new entry.
        @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
        Entry e = (Entry) tab[index];
        tab[index] = new Entry<>(hash, key, value, e);
        count++;
        modCount++;
    }

    /**
     * Increases the capacity of and internally reorganizes this
     * hashtable, in order to accommodate and access its entries more
     * efficiently.  This method is called automatically when the
     * number of keys in the hashtable exceeds this hashtable's capacity

     */
    @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
    protected void rehash() {
        int oldCapacity = table.length;
        Entry<?,?>[] oldMap = table;

        // overflow-conscious code
        int newCapacity = (oldCapacity << 1) + 1;
        if (newCapacity - MAX_ARRAY_SIZE > 0) {
            if (oldCapacity == MAX_ARRAY_SIZE)
                // Keep running with MAX_ARRAY_SIZE buckets
                return;

        for (int i = oldCapacity ; i-- > 0 ;) {
            for (Entry old = (Entry)oldMap[i] ; old != null ; ) {
                Entry e = old;
                old = old.next;

                int index = (e.hash & 0x7FFFFFFF) % newCapacity;

                newMap[index] = e;
            }
        }
    }

解释：

（1）Hashtable中的方法是同步的。

（2）Hashtable不允许null键与null值。

（3）扩容规则：int newCapacity = (oldCapacity << 1) + 1;

数组的定义如下：

    /**
     * The hash table data.
     */
    private transient Entry<?,?>[] table;

数组或者链表结点的结构定义如下：

    /**
     * Hashtable bucket collision list entry
     */
    private static class Entry implements Map.Entry {
        final int hash;
        final K key;
        V value;
        Entry next;

        protected Entry(int hash, K key, V value, Entry next) {
            this.hash = hash;
            this.key =  key;
            this.value = value;
            this.next = next;
        }

        @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
        protected Object clone() {
            return new Entry<>(hash, key, value,
                                  (next==null ? null : (Entry) next.clone()));
        }

        // Map.Entry Ops

        public K getKey() {
            return key;
        }

        public V getValue() {
            return value;
        }

        public V setValue(V value) {
            if (value == null)
                throw new NullPointerException();

            V oldValue = this.value;
            this.value = value;
            return oldValue;
        }

        public boolean equals(Object o) {
            if (!(o instanceof Map.Entry))
                return false;
            Map.Entry<?,?> e = (Map.Entry<?,?>)o;

            return (key==null ? e.getKey()==null : key.equals(e.getKey())) &&
               (value==null ? e.getValue()==null : value.equals(e.getValue()));
        }

        public int hashCode() {
            return hash ^ Objects.hashCode(value);
        }

        public String toString() {
            return key.toString()+"="+value.toString();
        }
    }

get()

方法的定义如下：

    /**
     * Returns the value to which the specified key is mapped,

     *
     *

        int index = (hash & 0x7FFFFFFF) % tab.length;
        for (Entry<?,?> e = tab[index] ; e != null ; e = e.next) {
