How would you initialise a static Map in Java?
Method one: static initialiser
Method two: instance initialiser (anonymous subclass) or some other method?
What are the pros and cons of each?
Here is an example illustrating the two methods:
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
public class Test {
private static final Map myMap = new HashMap();
static {
myMap.put(1, "one");
myMap.put(2, "two");
}
private static final Map myMap2 = new HashMap(){
{
put(1, "one");
put(2, "two");
}
};
}
