Converting lists of one element type to a list of another type
element, java, list
Solution
Java 8 way:
List<String> original = ...;
List<Wrapper> converted = original.stream().map(Wrapper::new).collect(Collectors.toList());
assuming `Wrapper` class has a constructor accepting a `String`.
Problem
I'm writing an adapter framework where I need to convert a list of objects from one class to another. I can iterate through the source list to do this as in Java: Best way of converting List<Integer> to List<String> However, I'm wondering if there is a way to do this on the fly when the target list is being iterated, so I don't have to iterate through the list twice.
