Converting a Java Map object to a Properties object

Question

Is anyone able to provide me with a better way than the below for converting a Java Map object to a Properties object?

    Map<String, String> map = new LinkedHashMap<String, String>();     map.put("key", "value");      Properties properties = new Properties();      for (Map.Entry<String, String> entry : map.entrySet()) {         properties.put(entry.getKey(), entry.getValue());     } 

Thanks

Answer 1

Use Properties::putAll(Map<String,String>) method:

Map<String, String> map = new LinkedHashMap<String, String>(); map.put("key", "value");  Properties properties = new Properties(); properties.putAll(map); 

Answer 2

you also can use apache commons-collection4

org.apache.commons.collections4.MapUtils#toProperties(Map<K, V>)

example:

Map<String, String> map = new LinkedHashMap<String, String>();  map.put("name", "feilong"); map.put("age", "18"); map.put("country", "china");  Properties properties = org.apache.commons.collections4.MapUtils.toProperties(map); 

see javadoc
