An immutable container for a key and a value, suitable for use in creating and populating Map instances. 
This is a value-based class; use of identity-sensitive operations (including reference equality (==), identity hash code, or synchronization) on instances of KeyValueHolder may have unpredictable results and should be avoided. 
Type parameters:
  • <K> – the key type
  • <V> – the value type
See Also:
API Note: This class is not public. Instances can be created using the Map.entry(k, v) factory method, which is public. 
This class differs from AbstractMap.SimpleImmutableEntry in the following ways:
it is not serializable, it is final, and its key and value must be non-null.
Since:9
