java - removing multiple selections from JList -

i have jlist elements multiple selection allowed. before these elements added jlist, information them being stored in static hashmap in separate class. when more 1 items selected , 'remove selected' button pressed, trying remove selected items (which works fine) , delete records hashmap. reason though, if select more 1 elements, first record in hashmap removed. don't understand how works jlist doesn't work hashmap. code below:

remove.addactionlistener(new actionlistener() {              @override             public void actionperformed(actionevent e) {                      object[] selectedelementsvalues = jlist.getselectedvalues();                      (int = 0; < selectedelementsvalues.length; i++) {                         system.out.println(jlist.getselectedvalue().tostring());                         system.out.println(personclass.map.get(jlist.getselectedvalue().tostring()));  personclass.map.remove(jlist.getselectedvalue().tostring());  system.out.println(personclass.map);                  } 

it works fine if select 1 item @ time , remove it. not multiple selection. items jlist removed properly, though, don't see why doesn't same map.

thx

the problem loop removes items map uses jlist.getselectedvalue().tostring(), when jlist selection not modified. can use selection array obtained earlier:

for (object o : selectedvalues) {     personclass.map.remove(o.tostring()); } 

note getselectedvalues() deprecated, , should use getselectedvalueslist() instead.
