update

public static boolean update(Map<String,Object> source,

                             boolean checkUpdatesAreUnequal)

Updates the provided changes into the source. If the key exists in the changes, it overrides the one in source unless both are Maps, in which case it recursively updated it.

Parameters:

source - the original map to be updated

changes - the changes to update into updated

checkUpdatesAreUnequal - should this method check if updates to the same key (that are not both maps) are unequal? This is just a .equals check on the objects, but that can take some time on long strings.

Returns:

true if the source map was modified

xContentType

@Deprecated
public static XContentType xContentType(BytesReference bytes)

Deprecated.

the content type should not be guessed except for few cases where we effectively don't know the content type. The REST layer should move to reading the Content-Type header instead. There are other places where auto-detection may be needed. This method is deprecated to prevent usages of it from spreading further without specific reasons.

Guesses the content type based on the provided bytes.
