Java Method References Explained

The document discusses Java method references, including references to static methods, instance methods, and constructors. It provides examples of using method references in the context of the Stream API to filter and manipulate a list of integers. The syntax for constructor references is also mentioned, highlighting their use when a functional interface returns an object type.

Java Method References


1. Reference to a static method
2. Reference to a instance method
(Example without using reference)
(Example with using reference to an instance
method)
Cont..
[Link] to a Constructor
Note:
When functional Interface return object type, then we can use
Constructor reference.

Syntax:

ClassName::new
Example 1:
Example: 2
Example of methods in Stream API
import [Link].*; Predicate<Integer> p=new Predicate<Integer>()
{
import [Link].*;
public Boolean test(Integer num)

else
// Creating a list of Integers return false;
List<Integer> list = [Link](3, 4, 6, 12, 20,25,7,90); }
}
Stream <Integer> s1= [Link]();
Stream<Integer> s2=[Link](num -> num % 5 == 0);
Stream<Integer> s3=[Link](num -> num*2);

[Link](num-> [Link](num));
