public class HashMapAttribute
extends AbstractCollectionAttribute
implements CollectionAttribute, Comparable<Object>
Maps a given id to an attribute. (e.g. if this Attribute contains 2 other attributes, one StringAttribute with id "Name" and another CollectionAttribute with id "Color" which contains three IntegerAttributes ('red', 'green' and 'blue'). The map then contains only the two key-value pairs 'Name'-StringAttribute and 'Color'-CollectionAttribute. The subattributes 'red', 'green' and 'blue' are not mapped in this Attribute!
