我需要根据列表中已经存在的值来筛选列表。例如，删除后面小于当前值的所有值。{2 5 3 4 7 5} ->{2 5 7}。或者例如删除所有重复项{3 5 4 2 3 5 6}->{3 5 4 2 6}。

public class Filter {
    public static <T> void List(List<T> list, Chooser<T> chooser) {
        List<Integer> toBeRemoved = new ArrayList<>();
        leftloop:
        for (int right = 1; right < list.size(); ++right) {
            for (int left = 0; left < right; ++left) {
                if (toBeRemoved.contains(left)) {
                    continue;
                }
                Keep keep = chooser.choose(list.get(left), list.get(right));
                switch (keep) {
                    case LEFT:
                        toBeRemoved.add(right);
                        continue leftloop;
                    case RIGHT:
                        toBeRemoved.add(left);
                        break;
                    case NONE:
                        toBeRemoved.add(left);
                        toBeRemoved.add(right);
                        continue leftloop;
                }
            }
        }

        Collections.sort(toBeRemoved, new Comparator<Integer>() {
            @Override
            public int compare(Integer o1, Integer o2) {
                return o2 - o1;
            }
        });

        for (int i : toBeRemoved) {
            if (i >= 0 && i < list.size()) {
                list.remove(i);
            }
        }
    }

    public static <T> void List(List<T> list, Keeper<T> keeper) {
        Iterator<T> iterator = list.iterator();
        while (iterator.hasNext()) {
            if (!keeper.keep(iterator.next())) {
                iterator.remove();
            }
        }
    }

    public interface Keeper<E> {
        boolean keep(E obj);
    }

    public interface Chooser<E> {
        Keep choose(E left, E right);
    }

    public enum Keep {
        LEFT, RIGHT, BOTH, NONE;
    }
}

这将被这样使用。

List<String> names = new ArrayList<>();
names.add("Anders");
names.add("Stefan");
names.add("Anders");
Filter.List(names, new Filter.Chooser<String>() {
    @Override
    public Filter.Keep choose(String left, String right) {
        return left.equals(right) ? Filter.Keep.LEFT : Filter.Keep.BOTH;
    }
});

谷歌的Guava库中的Collections2.filter(Collection,Predicate)方法正是您所寻找的。

使用java 8，特别是lambda表达式，你可以像下面的例子那样简单:

myProducts.stream().filter(prod -> prod.price>10).collect(Collectors.toList())

其中，对于myProducts集合中的每个产品，如果prodc .price>10，则将该产品添加到新的过滤列表中。

“最好”这个要求太宽泛了。它是“最短的”吗?“最快”?“可读”? 过滤器的地方或到另一个集合?

最简单(但不是最易读)的方法是迭代它，并使用Iterator.remove()方法:

Iterator<Foo> it = col.iterator();
while( it.hasNext() ) {
  Foo foo = it.next();
  if( !condition(foo) ) it.remove();
}

现在，为了使其更具可读性，可以将其包装到实用程序方法中。然后发明一个IPredicate接口，创建该接口的匿名实现，并执行如下操作:

CollectionUtils.filterInPlace(col,
  new IPredicate<Foo>(){
    public boolean keepIt(Foo foo) {
      return foo.isBar();
    }
  });

where filterInPlace()迭代集合并调用Predicate.keepIt()来了解实例是否保留在集合中。

我真的没有看到为这项任务引入第三方库的正当理由。

支持不同的可能性，

给定的集合,

Collection<Dto> testList = new ArrayList<>();

的类型,

class Dto
{
    private int id;
    private String text;

    public int getId()
    {
        return id;
    }

    public int getText()
    {
        return text;
    }
}

过滤器

Java 7

Filter<Dto> query = CQ.<Dto>filter(testList)
    .where()
    .property("id").eq().value(1);
Collection<Dto> filtered = query.list();

Java 8

Filter<Dto> query = CQ.<Dto>filter(testList)
    .where()
    .property(Dto::getId)
    .eq().value(1);
Collection<Dto> filtered = query.list();

同时,

Filter<Dto> query = CQ.<Dto>filter()
        .from(testList)
        .where()
        .property(Dto::getId).between().value(1).value(2)
        .and()
        .property(Dto::grtText).in().value(new string[]{"a","b"});

排序(也可用于Java 7)

Filter<Dto> query = CQ.<Dto>filter(testList)
        .orderBy()
        .property(Dto::getId)
        .property(Dto::getName)
    Collection<Dto> sorted = query.list();

分组(也可用于Java 7)

GroupQuery<Integer,Dto> query = CQ.<Dto,Dto>query(testList)
        .group()
        .groupBy(Dto::getId)
    Collection<Grouping<Integer,Dto>> grouped = query.list();

连接(也可用于Java 7)

考虑到,

class LeftDto
{
    private int id;
    private String text;

    public int getId()
    {
        return id;
    }

    public int getText()
    {
        return text;
    }
}

class RightDto
{
    private int id;
    private int leftId;
    private String text;

    public int getId()
    {
        return id;
    }

    public int getLeftId()
        {
            return leftId;
        }

    public int getText()
    {
        return text;
    }
}

class JoinedDto
{
    private int leftId;
    private int rightId;
    private String text;

    public JoinedDto(int leftId,int rightId,String text)
    {
        this.leftId = leftId;
        this.rightId = rightId;
        this.text = text;
    }

    public int getLeftId()
    {
        return leftId;
    }

    public int getRightId()
        {
            return rightId;
        }

    public int getText()
    {
        return text;
    }
}

Collection<LeftDto> leftList = new ArrayList<>();

Collection<RightDto> rightList = new ArrayList<>();

可以像这样连接，

Collection<JoinedDto> results = CQ.<LeftDto, LeftDto>query().from(leftList)
                .<RightDto, JoinedDto>innerJoin(CQ.<RightDto, RightDto>query().from(rightList))
                .on(LeftFyo::getId, RightDto::getLeftId)
                .transformDirect(selection ->  new JoinedDto(selection.getLeft().getText()
                                                     , selection.getLeft().getId()
                                                     , selection.getRight().getId())
                                 )
                .list();

表达式

Filter<Dto> query = CQ.<Dto>filter()
    .from(testList)
    .where()
    .exec(s -> s.getId() + 1).eq().value(2);

我写了一个扩展的Iterable类，它支持在不复制集合内容的情况下应用函数式算法。

用法:

List<Integer> myList = new ArrayList<Integer>(){ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 }

Iterable<Integer> filtered = Iterable.wrap(myList).select(new Predicate1<Integer>()
{
    public Boolean call(Integer n) throws FunctionalException
    {
        return n % 2 == 0;
    }
})

for( int n : filtered )
{
    System.out.println(n);
}

上面的代码将实际执行

for( int n : myList )
{
    if( n % 2 == 0 ) 
    {
        System.out.println(n);
    }
}
