Java 8 method references: provide a Supplier capable of supplying a parameterized result
JavaJava 8Java StreamJava Problem Overview
I'd like to use
java.util.Optional.orElseThrow()
with an Exception type that asks for a constructor parameter. Something like this:
.orElseThrow(MyException::new(someArgument)) // obviously NOT working
Is there a way to create a Supplier that passes my argument value in?
Java Solutions
Solution 1 - Java
Sure.
.orElseThrow(() -> new MyException(someArgument))
Solution 2 - Java
It appears that you can throw only RuntimeException from the method orElseThrow
. Otherwise you will get an error message like MyException cannot be converted to java.lang.RuntimeException
Update:- This was an issue with an older version of JDK. I don't see this issue with the latest versions.
Solution 3 - Java
optionalUsers.orElseThrow(() -> new UsernameNotFoundException("Username not found"));
