## Class PassiveExpiringMap<K,V>

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.commons.collections4.map.AbstractIterableMap<K,V>

    - - org.apache.commons.collections4.map.PassiveExpiringMap<K,V>

- Type Parameters:
    `K` - the type of the keys in the map
    `V` - the type of the values in the map
  All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Map<K,V>, Get<K,V>, IterableGet<K,V>, IterableMap<K,V>, Put<K,V>

      public class PassiveExpiringMap<K,V>
      extends AbstractMapDecorator<K,V>
      implements Serializable

  Decorates a `Map` to evict expired entries once their expiration time has been reached.

  When putting a key-value pair in the map this decorator uses a `PassiveExpiringMap.ExpirationPolicy` to determine how long the entry should remain alive as defined by an expiration time value.

  When accessing the mapped value for a key, its expiration time is checked, and if it is a negative value or if it is greater than the current time, the mapped value is returned. Otherwise, the key is removed from the decorated map, and `null` is returned.

  When invoking methods that involve accessing the entire map contents (i.e `containsKey(Object)`, `entrySet()`, etc.) this decorator removes all expired entries prior to actually completing the invocation.

  Note that `PassiveExpiringMap` is not synchronized and is not thread-safe. If you wish to use this map from multiple threads concurrently, you must use appropriate synchronization. The simplest approach is to wrap this map using `Collections.synchronizedMap(Map)`. This class may throw exceptions when accessed by concurrent threads without synchronization.

    - #### PassiveExpiringMap

          public PassiveExpiringMap()

      Default constructor. Constructs a map decorator that results in entries NEVER expiring.

                            Map<K,V> map)

      Construct a map decorator that decorates the given map and uses the given expiration policy to determine expiration times. If there are any elements already in the map being decorated, they will NEVER expire unless they are replaced.
      Parameters:
        `expiringPolicy` - the policy used to determine expiration times of entries as they are added.
