Lambda is a key feature of Java8, Java 8:lambdas & Java Collections | The Zeroturnaround.com article describes methods for processing large amounts of data using a lambda collection.
First, the Java collection introduced internal traversal, the original Lambdaj below this method can also be implemented in JAVA8:
list<person> persons = Aslist ( "Joe"new person ("Jim" New person ("John")); ForEach (persons). Setlastname ("Doe");
|
Java8 is similar to this traversal in the following way:
Persons.foreach (P-p.setlastname ("Doe"))
Java8 JDK mainly introduces a new Api:stream API to handle
Big Data, you can perform operations such as filter/map/reduce-with collections.
Use stream Apik to implement sequential or parallel operations on a data stream.
Sequential version stream<person> stream = Persons.stream ();
stream<person> Parallelstream = Persons.parallelstream ();
|
Java.util.stream.Stream provides a way to manipulate a large number of data interfaces, and when a stream instance is obtained, the following interesting collection operations can be implemented:
1.Filter
Filtering is one of the first natural operations (like SQL where query statements)
list<person> persons = ... stream<person> personsOver18 = Persons.stream (). Filter (P, P.getage () > 18);
|
(Banq Note: With such a powerful filtering function, after filtering the query do not always remember to use SQL statements, the load is concentrated on the database, if the amount of data larger than the hadoop/hive).
2. MAP
When we have filtered data, we are able to implement business operations such as object migration. If using an inner class is the following code:
stream<student> students = Persons.stream () . Filter (P, P.getage () > 18) . Map (new Function<person, student> () { @Override Public Student apply (person person) { return New Student (person); } });
|
But using lambda syntax is simple:
stream<student> map = Persons.stream () . Filter (P, P.getage () > 18) New Student (person));
|
Because the Mao method parameter is a function parameter consumer, we can also pass in the following method:
stream<student> map = Persons.stream () . Filter (P, P.getage () > 18) . Map (Adult::new);
|
We have already implemented the operation of the data flow, and finally we need to collect and summarize the results of these data, collect () Let us achieve this:
list<student> students = Persons.stream () . Filter (P, P.getage () > 18) . Map (Adult::new) . Collect (new collector<student, list<student>> () {...});
|
The above implements its own collector interface, which may not be required in most cases:
list<student> students = Persons.stream () . Filter (P, P.getage () > 18) . Map (Student::new) . Collect (Collectors.tolist ());
|
You can also specify a collection-specific type:
list<student> students = Persons.stream () . Filter (P, P.getage () > 18) . Map (Student::new) . Collect (Collectors.tocollection (ArrayList::new));
|
For order and parallel operations:
The Stream API does not require an explicit declaration order or parallelism, is parallel when consumer, and then switches to the order:
list<student> students = Persons.stream () . Parallel () . Filter (P, p.getage () >) //Filtering'll be performed concurrently . Sequential () . Map (Student::new) . Collect (Collectors.tocollection (ArrayList::new));
|
The filter function defaults to parallel operations.
