Method Detail

identity

public static <O,I extends O> Function<I,O> identity()

Returns:

A Function that transforms any object reference to itself.

asFunctionWhichThrows

public static <I,O,EX extends Throwable> FunctionWhichThrows<I,O,EX> asFunctionWhichThrows(Function<? super I,? extends O> source)

Converts a Function into a FunctionWhichThrows.

That is possible iff:

• The target's input type is a subclass of the source's input type, and
• The source's output type is a subclass of the target's output type.

Type Parameters:

I - The functions' input type

O - The functions' output type

EX - The target function's exception

asFunction

public static <I,O,EX extends RuntimeException> Function<I,O> asFunction(FunctionWhichThrows<? super I,? extends O,EX> source)

Converts a FunctionWhichThrows into a Function.

That is possible iff:

• The target's input type is a subclass of the source's input type, and
• The source's output type is a subclass of the target's output type
• The source's exception is a subclass of RuntimeException.

Type Parameters:

I - The functions' input type

O - The functions' output type

EX - The source function's exception

ignoreExceptions

public static <I,O,EX extends Throwable> Function<I,O> ignoreExceptions(Class<EX> exceptionClass,
                                                                        FunctionWhichThrows<I,O,EX> delegate,
                                                                        @Nullable
                                                                        O defaultValue)

Wraps the delegate such that its declared exception is caught, ignored, and the defaultValue is returned.
