hashtables and vectors

Posted by TimJ on Thu Jan 21 13:31:27 1999

Right,

For about the 3rd time in as many weeks (and as many programming languages), i need a Vector/Hashtable datastructure that allows me to access individual items by key name (like a hashtable), but also step through the keys (and values) in the order that they were added to the object (like a Vector).

I know this is easy to write, but it seems so necessary that, now I'm working in Java, it should be part of java.util, but I can't find anything useful. Am I going about this the right way?
