I got the following variables
List<Pruefvorschrift> listP = new ArrayList<Pruefvorschrift>();
ObservableMap<TestDevice,List<Pruefvorschrift>> testDev = FXCollections.emptyObservableMap();
in one function i want to fill the testDev by using lambda expression
//first call REST service and get data
List<TestDevice> test_dev = call.getTestDevice("");
//now do a foreach to add each entry (as key) to the testDev ObservableMap with a empty List (as value)
test_dev.stream().forEach(td ->{
TestDevice t = td;
testDev.put(t, listP);
});
but all i get is a error
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException at
java.util.AbstractMap.put(AbstractMap.java:209)
which obviously is this row
testDev.put(t, listP);
maybe i misunderstood the new stream api but i only want to fill the observable map with all the result of the call (key) and an empty List (value which will be modified later).
Any help? Thx
Whatever Map type is returned by FXCollections#emptyObservableMap
FXCollections.emptyObservableMap();
does not support the put method. You can't add anything to it. As the javadoc states
Creates and[sic] empty unmodifiable observable list.
This has nothing to do with lambda expressions or the Stream api.
just to complete here (Sotirios Delimanolis was absolute right and me so wrong :). My problem was solved by doing a correct job with the map itself
//create empty map
Map<TestDevice,List<Pruefvorschrift>> map = new HashMap<TestDevice,List<Pruefvorschrift>>();
//use this map to create the ObservableMap
ObservableMap<TestDevice,List<Pruefvorschrift>> testDev = FXCollections.observableMap(map);
And all works...Thx Sotirios

return Arrays.stream(partNumbers.get())
.filter(partNumber -> Objects.nonNull(partNumber.getDescription()))
.filter(partNumber -> partNumber.getDescription().toLowerCase().contains(rateAbbr.toLowerCase()))
.findFirst();
The above code would try to find a partNumber from a list of partNumbers where partNumber's description contains a 'rateAbbr'.
This code worked till 'rateAbbr' was a String but now it is changed to a list of rateAbbrs and I need to find a part number whose description contains any of the rateAbbrs. I tried it with streams and no luck yet. any help is appreciated.
just create a private boolean function that iterates over the list and checks if there is match, then call it inside filter method.
I welcome methods in the API to easily create default initialisations.
For example in HashMaps. But why have they not been provided with Supplier Lambda methods? - Or am I missing an important step, or did I not learn the latest java Api versions?
Standard (Java8) version:
Map<String,List<Integer>> datas = new HashMap<>();
List<Integer> integersList = datas.getOrDefault( "somekey", new ArrayList<>() );
which would instantiate a new ArrayList anytime the code is executed - no matter if the new list is needed or not.
Desired Lambda supplier version:
Map<String,List<Integer>> datas = new HashMap<>();
List<Integer> integersList = datas.getOrDefault( "somekey", ()->new ArrayList() );
Would instantiate (or execute some instantiation code) only in case demanded key is not within the map.
The code of the getOrDefault()-Method could look something like this:
public V getOrDefault( K key, Supplier<V> supplier ) {
if ( !super.containsKey( key ) && supplier != null ) {
super.put( key, supplier.get() );
}
return super.get( key );
}
Why did they(?) not build it that way initially or added such functionality later on?
I guess there is even more examples where Lambda would solve an unnecessary code execution - not just Maps as shown with this example.
By the way: sorry for re-asking a question but I would not know how to exactly look for my question with different terms...
Be welcome to post helpful links.
Thanks for your shared knowledge :-)
What you are looking for exists since Java 8. Take a look at the javadoc of the HashMap and specifically the method Hashmap.computeIfAbsent. This method allows for adding new entries to the HashMap if none can be found using the key provided.
Examaple:
Map<Integer, String> map = new HashMap();
String created = map.computeIfAbsent(1, k -> "Test");
System.out.println(created);
The code above will trigger the HashMap to call the provided Function to add a new entry since it cannot find an existing one. It both returns the new entry and call the Hashmap.put method to add it.
I have some data stored in a JPA Repository that I am trying to process. I would like to be able to use Java 8 Streams to do so, but can not figure out how to get the required information. This particular 'Entity' is actually only for recovery, so it holds items that would need to be processed after something like a power-fail/restart.
Using pre-Java 8 for-loops the code would look like:
List<MyEntity> deletes = myEntityJpaRepository.findByDeletes();
for (MyEntity item : deletes) {
String itemJson = item.getData();
// use a Jackson 'objectMapper' already setup to de-serialize
MyEventClass deleteEvent = objectMapper.readValue(itemJson, MyEventClass.class);
processDelete(deleteEvent, item.getId());
}
The problem arises from the two parameter method called at the very end. Using Streams, I believe I would do:
// deletes.stream()
// .map(i -> i.getData())
// .map(event -> objectMapper.readValue(event, MyEventClass.class))
// .forEach(??? can't get 'id' here to invoke 2 parameter method);
I have a solution (without Streams) that I can live with. However I would think this problem comes up a lot, thus my question is: IN GENERAL, is there a way using Streams to accomplish what I am trying to do?
Why not a Pair return on your map operation:
.map(i -> new Pair<>(i.getData(), i.getId()))
.map(pair -> new Pair<>(objectMapper.readValue(pair.getLeft(), MyEventClass.class), pair.getRight())
.forEach(p -> processDelete(pair.getLeft(), pair.getRight()))
I did not compile this, so there might be minor things to fix. But in general, you would need a Holder to pass your objects to the next stage in such a case. Either a Pair or some type or even a array.
Why not doing it simply this way?
deletes.forEach(item ->
processDelete(objectMapper.readValue(item.getData(), MyEventClass.class),
item.getId()));
This is a start at least, I guess it is dependent on why you want to use stream and how much you want to make it more functional
List<MyEntity> deletes = myEntityJpaRepository.findByDeletes();
deletes.stream().foreach(item -> {
String itemJson = item.getData();
// use a Jackson 'objectMapper' already setup to de-serialize
MyEventClass deleteEvent = objectMapper.readValue(itemJson, MyEventClass.class);
processDelete(deleteEvent, item.getId());
});
Sorry about the title of the question; it was kind of hard for me to make sense of it. If you guys have a better title, let me know and I can change it.
I have two types of objects, Bookmark and Revision. I have one large Map, like so:
Map<Long, Bookmark> mapOfBookmarks;
it contains key: value pairs like so:
1L: Bookmark1,
2L: Bookmark2,
...
Each Bookmark has a 'getRevisions()' method that returns a Map
public Map<Long, Revision> getRevisions();
I want to create a Stream that contains all revisions that exist under mapOfBookmarks. Essentially I want to do this:
List<Revision> revisions = new ArrayList<>();
for (Bookmark bookmark : mapOfBookmarks.values()) { // loop through each bookmark in the map of bookmarks ( Map<Long, Bookmark> )
for (Revision revision : bookmark.getRevisions().values()) { // loop through each revision in the map of revisions ( Map<Long, Revision> )
revisions.add(revision); // add each revision of each map to the revisions list
}
}
return revisions.stream(); // return a stream of revisions
However, I'd like to do it using the functionality of Stream, so more like:
return mapOfBookmarks.values().stream().everythingElseThatIsNeeded();
Which would essentially be like saying:
return Stream.of(revision1, revision2, revision3, revision4, ...);
How would I write that out? Something to note is that the dataset that it is looping through can be huge, making the list method a poor approach.
I'm using Windows 7 and Java 8
A flatmap is what you looking for. When you have streams contained within a stream that you wish to flatten, then flatmap is the answer,
List<Revision> all =
mapOfBookmarks.values().stream()
.flatMap(c -> c.getRevisions().values().stream())
.collect(Collectors.toList());
You are looking for the flatMap(mapper) operation:
Returns a stream consisting of the results of replacing each element of this stream with the contents of a mapped stream produced by applying the provided mapping function to each element.
In this case, we're making a Stream<Bookmark> by calling stream(), flat mapping it to the revisions of each bookmark and, finally, collecting that into a list with toList().
List<Revision> revisions =
mapOfBookmarks.values()
.stream()
.flatMap(bookmark -> boormark.getRevisions().values().stream())
.collect(Collectors.toList());
Note that your current code could also be improved by calling addAll instead of looping over each revisions:
for (Bookmark bookmark : mapOfBookmarks.values()) { // loop through each bookmark in the map of bookmarks ( Map<Long, Bookmark> )
revisions.addAll(bookmark.getRevisions().values());
}
In an application I have this TreeMap object:
treePath = new TreeMap<String, DLFolder>();
The first String parameter should be the key and the DLFolder is the value.
Ok the DLFolder object have this method dlFolder.getPath() that return a String
So I want to know if the treePath object contains a DLFolder object having a specific path value
Can I do this thing?
Tnx
for (DLFolder dlf : treePath.values()) {
if ("A SPECIFIC PATH".equals(dlf.getPath()) {
// do someting with the dlf
}
In Java 8 this is rather straightforward.
treePath.values().anyMatch(dlf -> dlf.getPath().equals(specificValue))
You can loop through the values of the TreeMap:
for (DLFoder folder : treePath.values())
if (folder.getPath().equals(somePathValue))
// path found!
If the map's key is also the value stored in dlFolder.getPath(), then yes, you can just call treePath.contains("Value");.
Other options include:
Iterating over treePath's values either using an iterator, an enhanced for loop, or the Java 8 streams.
Creating another map to map the same DLFolder objects, but by path.
