## Uses of Interface
java.util.SortedMap

Packages that use SortedMap
java.nio.charset: Defines charsets, decoders, and encoders, for translating between bytes and Unicode characters.
java.util: Contains the collections framework, legacy collection classes, event model, date and time facilities, internationalization, and miscellaneous utility classes (a string tokenizer, a random-number generator, and a bit array).
java.util.concurrent: Utility classes commonly useful in concurrent programming.
java.util.jar: Provides classes for reading and writing the JAR (Java ARchive) file format, which is based on the standard ZIP file format with an optional manifest file.

### Uses of SortedMap in java.nio.charset

Methods in java.nio.charset that return SortedMap
`static SortedMap<String,Charset>` Charset.`availableCharsets()` Constructs a sorted map from canonical charset names to charset objects.

### Uses of SortedMap in java.util

Subinterfaces of SortedMap in java.util
`interface` `NavigableMap<K,V>` A `SortedMap` extended with navigation methods returning the closest matches for given search targets.

Classes in java.util that implement SortedMap
`class` `TreeMap<K,V>` A Red-Black tree based `NavigableMap` implementation.

Methods in java.util that return SortedMap
`static <K,V> SortedMap<K,V>` Collections.`checkedSortedMap(SortedMap<K,V> m, Class<K> keyType, Class<V> valueType)` Returns a dynamically typesafe view of the specified sorted map.
`static <K,V> SortedMap<K,V>` Collections.`emptySortedMap()` Returns an empty sorted map (immutable).
`SortedMap<K,V>` NavigableMap.`headMap(K toKey)` Returns a view of the portion of this map whose keys are strictly less than `toKey`.
`SortedMap<K,V>` TreeMap.`headMap(K toKey)`
`SortedMap<K,V>` SortedMap.`headMap(K toKey)` Returns a view of the portion of this map whose keys are strictly less than `toKey`.
`SortedMap<K,V>` NavigableMap.`subMap(K fromKey, K toKey)` Returns a view of the portion of this map whose keys range from `fromKey`, inclusive, to `toKey`, exclusive.
`SortedMap<K,V>` TreeMap.`subMap(K fromKey, K toKey)`
`SortedMap<K,V>` SortedMap.`subMap(K fromKey, K toKey)` Returns a view of the portion of this map whose keys range from `fromKey`, inclusive, to `toKey`, exclusive.
`static <K,V> SortedMap<K,V>` Collections.`synchronizedSortedMap(SortedMap<K,V> m)` Returns a synchronized (thread-safe) sorted map backed by the specified sorted map.
`SortedMap<K,V>` NavigableMap.`tailMap(K fromKey)` Returns a view of the portion of this map whose keys are greater than or equal to `fromKey`.
`SortedMap<K,V>` TreeMap.`tailMap(K fromKey)`
`SortedMap<K,V>` SortedMap.`tailMap(K fromKey)` Returns a view of the portion of this map whose keys are greater than or equal to `fromKey`.
`static <K,V> SortedMap<K,V>` Collections.`unmodifiableSortedMap(SortedMap<K,? extends V> m)` Returns an unmodifiable view of the specified sorted map.

Methods in java.util with parameters of type SortedMap
`static <K,V> SortedMap<K,V>` Collections.`checkedSortedMap(SortedMap<K,V> m, Class<K> keyType, Class<V> valueType)` Returns a dynamically typesafe view of the specified sorted map.
`static <K,V> SortedMap<K,V>` Collections.`synchronizedSortedMap(SortedMap<K,V> m)` Returns a synchronized (thread-safe) sorted map backed by the specified sorted map.
`static <K,V> SortedMap<K,V>` Collections.`unmodifiableSortedMap(SortedMap<K,? extends V> m)` Returns an unmodifiable view of the specified sorted map.

Constructors in java.util with parameters of type SortedMap
Constructor and Description
`TreeMap(SortedMap<K,? extends V> m)` Constructs a new tree map containing the same mappings and using the same ordering as the specified sorted map.

### Uses of SortedMap in java.util.concurrent

Subinterfaces of SortedMap in java.util.concurrent
`interface` `ConcurrentNavigableMap<K,V>` A `ConcurrentMap` supporting `NavigableMap` operations, and recursively so for its navigable sub-maps.

Classes in java.util.concurrent that implement SortedMap
`class` `ConcurrentSkipListMap<K,V>` A scalable concurrent `ConcurrentNavigableMap` implementation.

Constructors in java.util.concurrent with parameters of type SortedMap
Constructor and Description
`ConcurrentSkipListMap(SortedMap<K,? extends V> m)` Constructs a new map containing the same mappings and using the same ordering as the specified sorted map.

### Uses of SortedMap in java.util.jar

Methods in java.util.jar that return SortedMap
`SortedMap<String,String>` Pack200.Packer.`properties()` Get the set of this engine's properties.
`SortedMap<String,String>` Pack200.Unpacker.`properties()` Get the set of this engine's properties.
