Eric Milles commented on GROOVY-9545:
-------------------------------------
Is it common to have Class and SAM-type alternatives for any method overloads?
Is there any problem using closure literals when both options exist?
> DGM: add toArray(Class) extension method for java.util.stream.Stream
> --------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: GROOVY-9545
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-9545
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Documentation
> Components: groovy-jdk
> Affects Versions: 4.x, 3.0.3
> Reporter: Eric Milles
> Assignee: Eric Milles
> Priority: Minor
>
> Proposal to add a new extension method for {{Stream}} that returns a typed
> array with minimal boilerplate (i.e. is somewhere in between {{toArray()}}
> and {{toArray(IntFunction)}}:
> {code:groovy}
> void test(List<String> list) {
> def array = list.stream().toArray() // returns Object[]
> array = list.stream().toArray(String) // returns String[] -- proposed
> extension
> array = list.stream().toArray(String[]::new) // returns String[] but
> requires "[]::new"
> }
> {code}
