Class Mutable<T>

java.lang.Object

com.aol.cyclops.lambda.utils.Mutable<T>

Type Parameters:

T - Type held inside closed var

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.util.function.Supplier<T>

public class Mutable<T>
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.util.function.Supplier<T>

Class that represents a Closed Variable In Java 8 because of the effectively final rule references to captured variables can't be changed. e.g. String var = "hello"; Runnable r = () -> var ="world"; Won't compile because var is treated as if it is final. This can be 'worked around' by using a wrapping object or array. e.g. Mutable<String> var = Mutable.of("hello"); Runnable r = () -> var.set("world");

Method Detail

of

public static <T> Mutable<T> of(T var)

Create a Mutable variable, which can be mutated inside a Closure e.g. Mutable<Integer> num = Mutable.of(20); Stream.of(1,2,3,4).map(i->i*10).peek(i-> num.mutate(n->n+i)).foreach(System.out::println); System.out.println(num.get()); //prints 120
