java 箭头语法,箭头运算符' - >'在Java中做什么？

While hunting through some code I came across the arrow operator, what exactly does it do? I thought Java did not have an arrow operator.

return (Collection) CollectionUtils.select(listOfCars, (arg0) -> {

return Car.SEDAN == ((Car)arg0).getStyle();

});

Details: Java 6, Apache Commons Collection, IntelliJ 12

Update/Answer: It turns out that IntelliJ 12 supports Java 8, which supports lambdas, and is "folding" Predicates and displaying them as lambdas. Below is the "un-folded" code.

return (Collection) CollectionUtils.select(listOfCars, new Predicate() {

public boolean evaluate(Object arg0) {

return Car.SEDAN == ((Car)arg0).getStyle();

}

});

That's part of the syntax of the new lambda expressions, to be introduced in Java 8. There are a couple of online tutorials to get the hang of it, here's a link to one. Basically, the -> separates the parameters (left-side) from the actual expression (right side).
