Using the xpand collection utilities from java [message #527939]

Is it possible to use the collect, select, reject. forAll, etc methods within a Java function ideally by providing an anonymous function for expression-with-e? These are very useful functions!

thanks

hi, i don't think they are easy to use cause these functions are deeply weaved into / depending from xpand/xtend - but you can reach the same goals better by using scala or groovy (which both offer closure support) or Apache Commons Collections (Class CollectionUtils) or Google Collections (Class Iterables) which may offer what you are looking for

I suggest to use Google Collections:
