---------------------------------------------
yes, much better, thanks!
> splitmap.TransformedMap is not really a Map

> Key: COLLECTIONS-461
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COLLECTIONS-461
> Project: Commons Collections
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Sebb
> Fix For: 4.x
>
>
> splitmap.TransformedMap is part of the Get/Put hierarchy, but it does not
> behave like a proper Java Map.
> In particular, java.util.Map.put(K, V) returns V.
> However the collections Put interface returns Object.
> As far as I can tell, this was done in order to be able to include
> TransformedMap in the hiearchy. But the side effect is to break the generics
> for all the non-transformer maps in the hierarchy.
> Maybe there should be a separate PutTransformed interface which has the
> appropriate generic types, i.e.
> public T put(K key, V value)
