在我的应用程序中,我使用第三方库(Spring Data for MongoDB准确地说)。

这个库的方法返回Iterable<T>,而我的其余代码期望Collection<T>。

有没有什么实用的方法可以让我快速地把一个转换成另一个?为了这么简单的事情,我希望避免在代码中创建一堆foreach循环。

There is no need to convert Iterable to Collection to use foreach loop - Iterable may be used in such loop directly, there is no syntactical difference, so I hardly understand why the original question was asked at all. Suggested way to convert Iterable to Collection is unsafe (the same relates to CollectionUtils) - there is no guarantee that subsequent calls to the next() method return different object instances. Moreover, this concern is not pure theoretical. E.g. Iterable implementation used to pass values to a reduce method of Hadoop Reducer always returns the same value instance, just with different field values. So if you apply makeCollection from above (or CollectionUtils.addAll(Iterator)) you will end up with a collection with all identical elements.

来自common -collections的IteratorUtils可能会有所帮助(尽管它们在最新的稳定版本3.2.1中不支持泛型):

@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
Collection<Type> list = IteratorUtils.toList(iterable.iterator());

4.0版本(目前在SNAPSHOT中)支持泛型,您可以去掉@SuppressWarnings。

更新:检查IterableAsList从仙人掌。

Java 8使用Java .util.stream的简洁解决方案:

public static <T> List<T> toList(final Iterable<T> iterable) {
    return StreamSupport.stream(iterable.spliterator(), false)
                        .collect(Collectors.toList());
}

从Java 16开始,你可以使用Stream.toList():

public static <T> List<T> toList(final Iterable<T> iterable) {
    return StreamSupport.stream(iterable.spliterator(), false)
                        .toList();
}

只要你调用contains, containsAll, equals, hashCode, remove, retainAll, size或toArray,你就必须遍历元素。

如果您偶尔只调用isEmpty或clear等方法,我认为您最好是惰性地创建集合。例如,你可以有一个支持数组列表来存储先前迭代的元素。

我不知道任何一个库中有这样的类,但是编写它应该是一个相当简单的练习。

因为RxJava是一个锤子,而这个看起来像钉子,你可以这样做

Observable.from(iterable).toList().toBlocking().single();
