hi Alex,
Thanks for reporting this, have fixed at revision [1].
I think there is no way with generics that we can return the
replaced value V
cause the signature of insert is - *K* insert( K, V )
Why isn't it V insert(K, V)? AvlTreeMap doesn't appear to extend
anything.... I don't see how returning the supplied key is very useful
whereas returning the previous value if any is quite useful.
thanks

Hi Kiran,
I have a problem you might be able to help me with. It seems the
AvlTreeMap does not replace old values when someone inserts a K/V
pair using the same key. I've created a simple test case which is
now being ignored in AvlTreeMap on my branch. Here's the commit
for the test:

If you can look at this and fix fast great but if not I can fix as
well. Just have not ventured into the AVL tree code just yet.
Thanks,
Alex
