public interface RichIterable<T>
extends InternalIterable<T>
RichIterable is an interface which extends the InternalIterable interface with several internal iterator methods, from the Smalltalk Collection protocol. These include select, reject, detect, collect, injectInto, anySatisfy, allSatisfy. The API also includes converter methods to convert a RichIterable to a List (toList), to a sorted List (toSortedList), to a Set (toSet), and to a Map (toMap).

      default void forEach​(Procedure<? super T> procedure)
      Description copied from interface: InternalIterable
      The procedure is executed for each element in the iterable.

      Example using a Java 8 lambda:

       people.forEach(Procedures.cast(person -> LOGGER.info(person.getName())));
       

      Example using an anonymous inner class:

       people.forEach(new Procedure<Person>()
       {
           public void value(Person person)
           {
               LOGGER.info(person.getName());
           }
       });
       
      NOTE: This method started to conflict with Iterable.forEach(java.util.function.Consumer) since Java 1.8. It is recommended to use each(Procedure) instead to avoid casting to Procedure.

    • getFirst

      @Deprecated T getFirst()
      Deprecated.
      in 6.0. Use OrderedIterable.getFirst() instead.
      Returns the first element of an iterable. In the case of a List it is the element at the first index. In the case of any other Collection, it is the first element that would be returned during an iteration. If the iterable is empty, null is returned. If null is a valid element of the container, then a developer would need to check to see if the iterable is empty to validate that a null result was not due to the container being empty.

      The order of Sets are not guaranteed (except for TreeSets and other Ordered Set implementations), so if you use this method, the first element could be any element from the Set.

      Since:
      1.0
    • getLast

      @Deprecated T getLast()
      Deprecated.
      in 6.0. Use OrderedIterable.getLast() instead.
      Returns the last element of an iterable. In the case of a List it is the element at the last index. In the case of any other Collection, it is the last element that would be returned during an iteration. If the iterable is empty, null is returned. If null is a valid element of the container, then a developer would need to check to see if the iterable is empty to validate that a null result was not due to the container being empty.

    • flatCollect

      <V> RichIterable<V> flatCollect​(Function<? super T,​? extends Iterable<V>> function)
      flatCollect is a special case of collect(Function). With collect, when the Function returns a collection, the result is a collection of collections. flatCollect outputs a single "flattened" collection instead. This method is commonly called flatMap.

      Consider the following example where we have a Person class, and each Person has a list of Address objects. Take the following Function:

       Function<Person, List<Address>> addressFunction = Person::getAddresses;
       RichIterable<Person> people = ...;
       
      Using collect returns a collection of collections of addresses.
       RichIterable<List<Address>> addresses = people.collect(addressFunction);
       
      Using flatCollect returns a single flattened list of addresses.
       RichIterable<Address> addresses = people.flatCollect(addressFunction);
       
      Parameters:
      function - The Function to apply
      Returns:
      a new flattened collection produced by applying the given function
