I'd like to use
java.util.Optional.orElseThrow()
with an Exception type that asks for a constructor parameter. Something like this:
orElseThrow(MyException::new(someArgument)) // obviously NOT working
Is there a way to create a Supplier that passes my argument value in?
Sure. orElseThrow(() -> new MyException(someArgument))
.
It appears that you can throw only RuntimeException from the method orElseThrow
. Otherwise you will get an error message like MyException cannot be converted to java.lang.RuntimeException
optionalUsers.orElseThrow(() -> new UsernameNotFoundException("Username not found"));
