How to get a stream from Optional class in Java 9?
The Optional class provides a container that may or may not contain a non-null value. It has been introduced in Java 8 to reduce the number of places in the code where a NullPointerException has generated. Java 9 added three methods: ifPresentOrElse(), or(), and stream(), which helps us deal with default values.
In the below example, we can get a stream from Optional class using Person class
Example
import java.util.Optional; import java.util.stream.Stream; public class OptionalTest { public static void main(String args[]) { getPerson().stream() .map(Person::getName) .map("Jai "::concat) .forEach(System.out::println); getEmptyPerson().stream() .map(Person::getName) .map("Jai "::concat) .forEach(System.out::println); } private static Optional<Person> getEmptyPerson() { return Optional.empty(); } private static Optional<Person> getPerson() { return Optional.of(new Person("Adithya")); } static class Person { private String name; public Person(String name) { this.name = name; } public String getName() { return name; } public void setName(String name) { this.name = name; } } }
Output
Jai Adithya
