Interface ThrowableBinaryOperator<T>

  • Type Parameters:
    T - the type of the operands and result of the operator
    All Superinterfaces:
    java.util.function.BiFunction<T,​T,​T>, ThrowableBiFunction<T,​T,​T>
    Functional Interface:
    This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.

    @FunctionalInterface
    public interface ThrowableBinaryOperator<T>
    extends ThrowableBiFunction<T,​T,​T>
    Represents an operation upon two operands of the same type, producing a result of the same type as the operands. This is a specialization of BiFunction for the case where the operands and the result are all of the same type.

    Permits checked exceptions unlike BinaryOperator

    This is a functional interface whose functional method is ThrowableBiFunction.apply(Object, Object).

      • minBy

        static <T> ThrowableBinaryOperator<T> minBy​(java.util.Comparator<? super T> comparator)
        Returns a ThrowableBinaryOperator which returns the lesser of two elements according to the specified Comparator.
        Type Parameters:
        T - the type of the input arguments of the comparator
        Parameters:
        comparator - a Comparator for comparing the two values
        Returns:
        a BinaryOperator which returns the lesser of its operands, according to the supplied Comparator
        Throws:
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
