Java 8 Lambda Stream forEach with multiple stateme

问题:

I am still in the process of learning Lambda, please excuse me If I am doing something wrong

final Long tempId = 12345L;
List<Entry> updatedEntries = new LinkedList<>();

for (Entry entry : entryList) {
    entry.setTempId(tempId);
    updatedEntries.add(entityManager.update(entry, entry.getId()));
}

//entryList.stream().forEach(entry -> entry.setTempId(tempId));

Seems like forEach can be executed for one statement only. It doesn't return updated stream or function to process further. I might have selected wrong one altogether.

Can someone guide me how to do this effectively?

One more question,

public void doSomething() throws Exception {
    for(Entry entry: entryList){
        if(entry.getA() == null){
            printA() throws Exception;
        }
        if(entry.getB() == null){
            printB() throws Exception;
        }
        if(entry.getC() == null){
            printC() throws Exception;
        }
    }
}
    //entryList.stream().filter(entry -> entry.getA() == null).forEach(entry -> printA()); something like this?

How do I convert this to Lambda expression?

回答1:

Forgot to relate to the first code snippet. I wouldn't use forEach at all. Since you are collecting the elements of the Stream into a List, it would make more sense to end the Stream processing with collect. Then you would need peek in order to set the ID.

List<Entry> updatedEntries = 
    entryList.stream()
             .peek(e -> e.setTempId(tempId))
             .collect (Collectors.toList());

For the second snippet, forEach can execute multiple expressions, just like any lambda expression can :

entryList.forEach(entry -> {
  if(entry.getA() == null){
    printA();
  }
  if(entry.getB() == null){
    printB();
  }
  if(entry.getC() == null){
    printC();
  }
});

However (looking at your commented attempt), you can't use filter in this scenario, since you will only process some of the entries (for example, the entries for which entry.getA() == null) if you do.

回答2:

List<String> items = new ArrayList<>();
items.add("A");
items.add("B");
items.add("C");
items.add("D");
items.add("E");

//lambda
//Output : A,B,C,D,E
items.forEach(item->System.out.println(item));

//Output : C
items.forEach(item->{
    System.out.println(item);
    System.out.println(item.toLowerCase());
  }
});

In the first case alternatively to multiline forEach you can use the peek stream operation:

entryList.stream()
         .peek(entry -> entry.setTempId(tempId))
         .forEach(updatedEntries.add(entityManager.update(entry, entry.getId())));

In the second case I'd suggest to extract the loop body to the separate method and use method reference to call it via forEach. Even without lambdas it would make your code more clear as the loop body is independent algorithm which processes the single entry so it might be useful in other places as well and can be tested separately.

Update after question editing. if you have checked exceptions then you have two options: either change them to unchecked ones or don't use lambdas/streams at this piece of code at all.

You don't have to cram multiple operations into one stream/lambda. Consider separating them into 2 statements (using static import of toList()):

entryList.forEach(e->e.setTempId(tempId));

List<Entry> updatedEntries = entryList.stream()
  .map(e->entityManager.update(entry, entry.getId()))
  .collect(toList());
