It's that time of year again when we are incredibly fortunate to host the amazing Dr. Venkat Subramaniam at our monthly meeting. Venkat is a published author, educator, trainer, internationally renowned speaker, and Java Champion. But more importantly, you could not meet a more caring and wonderful person.
Abstract -
The Stream API provides a wealth of methods, such as filter, map, takeWhile, limit, and more, to build functional pipelines. Yet you may encounter situations in your applications that do not readily lend themselves to these built-in methods. The new gatherer() function, along with the Gatherer interface, gives you the necessary tools to create your own custom steps in the functional pipeline. In this presentation, learn about the different types of gatherers and how to implement them using practical live-coded examples.
