I have a problem trying out the Lambda expressions of Java 8.
Usually it works fine, but now I have methods that throw IOException‘s.
It’s best if you look at the following code:
class Bank{
....
public Set<String> getActiveAccountNumbers() throws IOException {
Stream<Account> s = accounts.values().stream();
s = s.filter(a -> a.isActive());
Stream<String> ss = s.map(a -> a.getNumber());
return ss.collect(Collectors.toSet());
}
....
}
interface Account{
....
boolean isActive() throws IOException;
String getNumber() throws IOException;
....
}
The problem is, it doesn’t compile, because I have to catch the possible exceptions of the isActive- and the getNumber-Methods. But even if I explicitly use a try-catch-Block like below, it still doesn’t compile because I don’t catch the Exception. So either there is a bug in JDK, or I don’t know how to catch these Exceptions.
class Bank{
....
//Doesn't compile either
public Set<String> getActiveAccountNumbers() throws IOException {
try{
Stream<Account> s = accounts.values().stream();
s = s.filter(a -> a.isActive());
Stream<String> ss = s.map(a -> a.getNumber());
return ss.collect(Collectors.toSet());
}catch(IOException ex){
}
}
....
}
How can I get it work? Can someone hint me to the right solution?
