Convert an Iterable to Stream in Java
What is an Iterable?Iterable is an Interface that is used for iterating over a Collection of objects. It is part of the Java Collections Framework. The Iterable interface is implemented by all the collection classes in Java. For example, ArrayList, HashSet, etc. The Iterable interface has a method named iterator() which returns an Iterator object.What is a Stream? Stream is an Interface that is used for processing sequences of elements. It is part of the Java Collections Framework. The Stream interface is a newly added abstraction in Java 8. It is mainly used for sequential operations on collections, for example, ...
Read MoreConvert an Iterable to Collection in Java
In Java, we can store objects within other objects. A collection is an object that stores other objects. Some examples of collections are ArrayList, HashSet. Iterable is an Interface that is used for iterating over a Collection of objects. It is part of the Java Collections Framework. The Iterable interface is implemented by all the collection classes in Java. The Iterable interface has a method named iterator() which returns an Iterator object. In this article, we will learn how to convert an Iterable to a Collection in Java using multiple ways. Those are - Using for-each ...
Read MorePretty print JSON using Jackson library in Java?
A Jackson API is a Java-based library, and it can be useful to convert Java objects to JSON and JSON to Java objects. A Jackson API is faster than other API, needs less memory, and is good for large objects. We can process a JSON in three different ways: Streaming API, Tree Model, and Data Binding. We can pretty print JSON using the writerWithDefaultPrettyPrinter() of the ObjectMapper class, which is a factory method for constructing an ObjectWriter that will serialize objects using the default pretty printer for indentation. In this article, we will learn how to pretty print JSON using the Jackson ...
Read MoreConvert JSON to/from Map using Jackson library in Java?
JSON is a format that is used to exchange data between a server and a client. It is lightweight and easy to read and write. In Java, we can convert JSON to/from Map using various libraries. In this article, we will discuss how to convert JSON to/from Map using the Jackson library. The Jackson is a library for Java, and it has very powerful data binding capabilities and provides a framework to serialize custom java objects to JSON and deserialize JSON back to Java object. We can convert JSON to/from Map using readValue() and writeValueAsString() methods of com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper class. To ...
Read MoreHow to format a date using the Gson library in Java?
Gson is a JSON for Java, which is developed by Google. We can format a date using the Gson library in Java. The Gson library provides a GsonBuilder class that allows us to create a Gson instance with custom settings. We call the create() method of the GsonBuilder class to create an instance of the Gson class. Then we use the method setDateFormat() to configure Gson to serialize Date objects according to the pattern provided. In order to use the Gson library, we need to add it to our project. If you are using Maven, add this to your ...
Read MoreImportance of a JSONTokener in Java?
If you have ever worked with JSON in Java, you might have used classes like JSONObject, JSONArray, JsonParser, etc. These classes are part of the org.json library. We use these classes to build JSON or parse JSON. But behind the scenes, these classes use a class called JSONTokener. In this article, we will learn about the JSONTokener class and its importance in Java. What is JSONTokener? The JSONTokener class is like a tool that reads a JSON string step by step, breaking it into smaller parts called tokens. It is like a helper that makes it easier to understand and ...
Read MoreHow to implement custom JSON de-serialization with Gson in Java?
Deserialization is the process of converting JSON data back into Java objects. Gson provides a simple way to do this using the fromJson() method. Custom JSON de-serialization with Gson Gson is a Java library developed by Google to convert Java objects into their JSON format and vice versa. Custom JSON is a way we can modify or extend the standard JSON format so that it can suit our specific needs. To use the Gson library, we need to add the Gson library to our project. If you are using Maven, add this to your pom.xml file: com.google.code.gson gson 2.8.9 ...
Read MoreJava Stream findAny() Method with Examples
In this article, we will learn the findAny() method with examples in Java. The findAny() method in Java Streams is a tool that is used for fetching an arbitrary element from a stream. It provides a quick and easy way to retrieve any element without writing any conditions. This method returns a container that may or may not contain a non-null value, which is called an Optional object. What is the findAny() Method? The findAny() method retrieves any element from the stream, and the result is wrapped in an Optional object. If the stream is empty, the Optional object will ...
Read MoreJava streams counting() method with examples
In this article, we will learn how to count the number of elements in a stream using the counting() method in Java Streams. Java Streams provide an efficient way to process data collections, and the Collectors.counting() method is useful for counting the number of elements in a stream. The counting() method is a static method of the Collectors class, which is part of the java.util.stream package. It returns a long value representing the number of elements in the stream. Counting the Number of Elements in the Stream The following are the steps to count the number of elements in the ...
Read MoreDifference between ArrayList.clear() and ArrayList.removeAll() in java?
The ArrayList class in Java is a Resizable-array implementation of the List interface. It allows null values. Java clear() Method V/S removeAll() Method There are some important differences between the clear() and removeAll (Collection c) methods of the ArrayList class. This table compares these two methods.
