Guava : LinkedHashMultimap values as list and not String -

i reading guava's linkedhashmultimap , thought might useful me.

i have requirement such have map follows:

key:value    b    c    d p    q p    r 

if above input in map, want use linkedhashmultimap create map like:

key : value      list<b,c,d> p     list<q,r> 

tried using linkedhashmultimap has following issue:

    maplen.entries().stream().foreach(entry -> {         system.out.println("maptemp2 key + " + entry.getkey());         system.out.println("maptemp2 value + " + entry.getvalue());     }); 

above prints string values in map , not list<string>.

can pointout how can done.

(kindly note: aware of normal core java solution of iterating, checking , creating list , inserting map.)

as can see in javadoc, multimap#entries() returns collection<map.entry<k,v>> - basically, iterate on each key/value pair, instead of key/(value set). so, try turning multimap<k, v> standard map<k, list<v>>. can multimap#asmap(), code like:

maplen.asmap().entryset().stream().foreach(entry -> {     system.out.println("maptemp2 key + " + entry.getkey());     system.out.println("maptemp2 value + " + entry.getvalue()); }); 

ps. guess missed parenthesis after ...entries - it's method, not property, should have used:

//            vv down here maplen.entries().stream().foreach(entry -> {     system.out.println("maptemp2 key + " + entry.getkey());     system.out.println("maptemp2 value + " + entry.getvalue()); });
