How to split a value in a map

Question

I am getting a map in the form as below :

{owner=sailpoint.object.Identity@2aea717c[id=8ad616906a065639016a0657e2df000d,name=Jsmith]}

How can I get only "Jsmith" as my value to key "owner"?

So your map looks something like this: `Map` and you would like a `Map`? Then you could use streams, like so: `yourMap.entrySet().stream().collect(Collectors.toMap(Entry::getKey, e -> e.getValue().getName()));` — Lino, Apr 25 '19 at 07:31
Your output show a `Identity` instance as a value, instead, use the `name` member of that instance as a value. (and of course, change the `Map` declaration. I don't believe we can write a correct answer to this question so I would propose to close for "typo" since you use the wrong value during the population of the map. — AxelH, Apr 25 '19 at 07:45

Value against owner key is an object. In your object toString() method you can return the name.

@Override
public String toString() {
    return name;
}

Thanks Guys! I was able to solve this with: yourMap.entrySet().stream().collect(Collectors.toMap(Entry::getKey, e -> e.getValue().getName())); THANKS LINO – Barca Fan Apr 26 '19 at 09:31
