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。
With Guava you can use Lists.newArrayList(Iterable) or Sets.newHashSet(Iterable), among other similar methods. This will of course copy all the elements in to memory. If that isn't acceptable, I think your code that works with these ought to take Iterable rather than Collection. Guava also happens to provide convenient methods for doing things you can do on a Collection using an Iterable (such as Iterables.isEmpty(Iterable) or Iterables.contains(Iterable, Object)), but the performance implications are more obvious.
有点晚了,但我创建了一个非常优雅的Java 8解决方案,允许将T的Iterable转换为T的任何集合,而不需要任何库:
public static <T, C extends Collection<T>> C toCollection(Iterable<T> iterable, Supplier<C> baseSupplier)
{
C collection = baseSupplier.get();
iterable.forEach(collection::add);
return collection;
}
使用的例子:
Iterable<String> iterable = ...;
List<String> list = toCollection(iterable, ArrayList::new);
这不是对你问题的回答,但我相信这是解决你问题的办法。org.springframework.data.repository.CrudRepository接口确实有返回java.lang.Iterable的方法,但是你不应该使用这个接口。而是使用子接口,在你的例子中是org.springframework.data.mongodb.repository.MongoRepository。该接口具有返回java.util.List类型对象的方法。
