J2ME HashTable Example

     

To use the HashTable, java.util.Hashtable package must be imported into the application. Generally HashTable are used to map the keys to values and these keys or values could be any null object. 

Please go through the given code to see, how a HashTable can be used into the applications.

Output of the application will look like as follow..
