TreeMap或者HashMap中的entrySet()方法

查看entrySet()源码

    /**
     * Returns a {@link Set} view of the mappings contained in this map.
     *
     * <p>The set's iterator returns the entries in ascending key order. The
     * sets's spliterator is
     * <em><a href="Spliterator.html#binding">late-binding</a></em>,
     * <em>fail-fast</em>, and additionally reports {@link Spliterator#SORTED} and
     * {@link Spliterator#ORDERED} with an encounter order that is ascending key
     * order.
     *
     * <p>The set is backed by the map, so changes to the map are
     * reflected in the set, and vice-versa.  If the map is modified
     * while an iteration over the set is in progress (except through
     * the iterator's own {@code remove} operation, or through the
     * {@code setValue} operation on a map entry returned by the
     * iterator) the results of the iteration are undefined.  The set
     * supports element removal, which removes the corresponding
     * mapping from the map, via the {@code Iterator.remove},
     * {@code Set.remove}, {@code removeAll}, {@code retainAll} and
     * {@code clear} operations.  It does not support the
     * {@code add} or {@code addAll} operations.

    public Set<Map.Entry<K,V>> entrySet() {
        EntrySet es = entrySet;
        return (es != null) ? es : (entrySet = new EntrySet());
    }

而从 EntrySet es = entrySet;  和三目运算中可以知道实际返回的是entrySet，在TreeMap类中可查看entrySet的源码

 private transient EntrySet entrySet; //java语言的关键字，变量修饰符，如果用transient声明一个实例变量，当对象存储时，它的值不需要维持。换句话来说就是，用transient关键字标记的成员变量不参与序列化过程。

entrySet是一个临时变量，不参与序列化（关于序列化，我的另一篇博客会有略微提及），这里只是一个声明，没有传值

同理也可以知道返回的是一个EntrySet数组，此EntrySet中存放的是Map.Entry<K,V>接口所指向的子类对象，查找源码

static final class Entry<K,V> implements Map.Entry<K,V> {
        K key;
        V value;
        Entry<K,V> left;
        Entry<K,V> right;
        Entry<K,V> parent;
        boolean color = BLACK;

        /**
         * Make a new cell with given key, value, and parent, and with
         * {@code null} child links, and BLACK color.
         */
        Entry(K key, V value, Entry<K,V> parent) {
            this.key = key;
            this.value = value;
            this.parent = parent;
        }

        /**
         * Returns the key.
         *
         * @return the key
         */
        public K getKey() {
            return key;
        }

        /**
         * Returns the value associated with the key.
         *
         * @return the value associated with the key
         */
        public V getValue() {
            return value;
        }

        /**
         * Replaces the value currently associated with the key with the given
         * value.
         *
         * @return the value associated with the key before this method was
         *         called
         */
        public V setValue(V value) {
            V oldValue = this.value;
            this.value = value;
            return oldValue;
        }

        public boolean equals(Object o) {
            if (!(o instanceof Map.Entry))
                return false;
            Map.Entry<?,?> e = (Map.Entry<?,?>)o;

            return valEquals(key,e.getKey()) && valEquals(value,e.getValue());
        }

        public int hashCode() {
            int keyHash = (key==null ? 0 : key.hashCode());
            int valueHash = (value==null ? 0 : value.hashCode());
            return keyHash ^ valueHash;
        }

        public String toString() {
            return key + "=" + value;
        }
    }

可以看见TreeMap中的内部类Entry<K,V>实现了 Map.Entry<K,V>接口，那么Entry<K,V>是 Map.Entry<K,V>的一个实现类，但是Entry<K,V>中的值是如何从外界添加进来的，继续查看源码中put方法

 public V put(K key, V value) {
        Entry<K,V> t = root;
        if (t == null) {
            compare(key, key); // type (and possibly null) check

            root = new Entry<>(key, value, null);
            size = 1;
            modCount++;
            return null;
        }
        int cmp;
        Entry<K,V> parent;
        // split comparator and comparable paths
        Comparator<? super K> cpr = comparator;
        if (cpr != null) {
            do {
                parent = t;
                cmp = cpr.compare(key, t.key);
                if (cmp < 0)
                    t = t.left;
                else if (cmp > 0)
                    t = t.right;
                else
                    return t.setValue(value);
            } while (t != null);
        }
        else {
            if (key == null)
                throw new NullPointerException();
            @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
                Comparable<? super K> k = (Comparable<? super K>) key;
            do {
                parent = t;
                cmp = k.compareTo(t.key);
                if (cmp < 0)
                    t = t.left;
                else if (cmp > 0)
                    t = t.right;
                else
                    return t.setValue(value);
            } while (t != null);
        }
        Entry<K,V> e = new Entry<>(key, value, parent);
        if (cmp < 0)
            parent.left = e;
        else
            parent.right = e;
        fixAfterInsertion(e);
        size++;
        modCount++;
        return null;
    }

原来put方法将值存入了一个名为root的Entry<K,V>中，root是一个临时变量

 private transient Entry<K,V> root;

那么到目前为止还是不知道Entry<K,V>的值如何传入entrySet中，继续查看源码，

 class EntrySet extends AbstractSet<Map.Entry<K,V>> {
        public Iterator<Map.Entry<K,V>> iterator() {
            return new EntryIterator(getFirstEntry());
        }

        public boolean contains(Object o) {
            if (!(o instanceof Map.Entry))
                return false;
            Map.Entry<?,?> entry = (Map.Entry<?,?>) o;
            Object value = entry.getValue();
            Entry<K,V> p = getEntry(entry.getKey());
            return p != null && valEquals(p.getValue(), value);
        }

        public boolean remove(Object o) {
            if (!(o instanceof Map.Entry))
                return false;
            Map.Entry<?,?> entry = (Map.Entry<?,?>) o;
            Object value = entry.getValue();
            Entry<K,V> p = getEntry(entry.getKey());
            if (p != null && valEquals(p.getValue(), value)) {
                deleteEntry(p);
                return true;
            }
            return false;
        }

        public int size() {
            return TreeMap.this.size();
        }

        public void clear() {
            TreeMap.this.clear();
        }

        public Spliterator<Map.Entry<K,V>> spliterator() {
            return new EntrySpliterator<K,V>(TreeMap.this, null, null, 0, -1, 0);
        }
    }

 final class EntryIterator extends PrivateEntryIterator<Map.Entry<K,V>> {
        EntryIterator(Entry<K,V> first) {
            super(first);
        }
        public Map.Entry<K,V> next() {
            return nextEntry();
        }
    }

 final Entry<K,V> nextEntry() {
            Entry<K,V> e = next;
            if (e == null)
                throw new NoSuchElementException();
            if (modCount != expectedModCount)
                throw new ConcurrentModificationException();
            next = successor(e);
            lastReturned = e;
            return e;
        }
