I am still in the process of learning Lambda, please excuse me If I am doing something wrong
final Long tempId = 12345L;
List updatedEntries = new LinkedList<>();
for (Entry entry : entryList) {
entry.setTempId(tempId);
updatedEntries.add(entityManager.update(entry, entry.getId()));
}
//entryList.stream().forEach(entry -> entry.setTempId(tempId));
Seems like forEach can be executed for one statement only. It doesn't return updated stream or function to process further. I might have selected wrong one altogether.
Can someone guide me how to do this effectively?
One more question,
public void doSomething() throws Exception {
for(Entry entry: entryList){
if(entry.getA() == null){
printA() throws Exception;
}
if(entry.getB() == null){
printB() throws Exception;
}
if(entry.getC() == null){
printC() throws Exception;
}
}
}
//entryList.stream().filter(entry -> entry.getA() == null).forEach(entry -> printA()); something like this?
How do I convert this to Lambda expression?

Forgot to relate to the first code snippet. I wouldn't use forEach at all. Since you are collecting the elements of the Stream into a List, it would make more sense to end the Stream processing with collect. Then you would need peek in order to set the ID.
List updatedEntries =
entryList.stream()
.peek(e -> e.setTempId(tempId))
.collect (Collectors.toList());
For the second snippet, forEach can execute multiple expressions, just like any lambda expression can :
entryList.forEach(entry -> {
if(entry.getA() == null){
printA();
}
if(entry.getB() == null){
printB();
}
if(entry.getC() == null){
printC();
}
});
However (looking at your commented attempt), you can't use filter in this scenario, since you will only process some of the entries (for example, the entries for which entry.getA() == null) if you do.
