      True in case the given value is referenced by a key.
    • insert

      An indexed directory represents all elements which begin with a path which's last path element represents an index. There may by many sub-paths for the same indexed path which are all are included by the according directory. Removes the elements of the given index below the given path. Given the following paths and index = 1 with a queried path "/root/child": /root/child/0/0aaa /root/child/0/0bbb /root/child/0/0bbb /root/child/1/1aaa /root/child/1/1bbb /root/child/1/1bbb You will get a result containing all the elements which's keys begin with "/root/child/1/".The keys of the result will exclude the path "prefix" "/root/child/1".
      Specified by:
      removeDirAt in interface PathMap.MutablePathMap<String>
      Parameters:
      aPathElements - The elements of the path from which to remove the indexed elements.
      aIndex - The index which to use.
      Returns:
      The indexed elements without the indexed path "prefixes".
