Java中C＃匿名方法的等价物？

Question

In C# you can define delegates anonymously (even though they are nothing more than syntactic sugar). For example, I can do this:

public string DoSomething(Func<string, string> someDelegate)
{
     // Do something involving someDelegate(string s)
} 

DoSomething(delegate(string s){ return s += "asd"; });
DoSomething(delegate(string s){ return s.Reverse(); });

Is it possible to pass code like this in Java? I'm using the processing framework, which has a quite old version of Java (it doesn't have generics).

Answer 1

Pre Java 8:

The closest Java has to delegates are single method interfaces. You could use an anonymous inner class.

interface StringFunc {
   String func(String s);
}

void doSomething(StringFunc funk) {
   System.out.println(funk.func("whatever"));
}

doSomething(new StringFunc() {
      public String func(String s) {
           return s + "asd";
      }
   });


doSomething(new StringFunc() {
      public String func(String s) {
           return new StringBuffer(s).reverse().toString();
      }
   });

Java 8 and above:

Java 8 adds lambda expressions to the language.

    doSomething((t) -> t + "asd");
    doSomething((t) -> new StringBuilder(t).reverse().toString());

Answer 2

Not exactly like this but Java has something similar.

It's called anonymous inner classes.

Let me give you an example:

DoSomething(new Runnable() {
   public void run() {
       // "delegate" body
   }
});

It's a little more verbose and requires an interface to implement, but other than that it's pretty much the same thing

Answer 3

Your example would look like this in Java, using anomymous inner classes:

interface Func {
    String execute(String s);
}

public String doSomething(Func someDelegate) {
    // Do something involving someDelegate.execute(String s)
}

doSomething(new Func() { public String execute(String s) { return s + "asd"; } });
doSomething(new Func() { public String execute(String s) { return new StringBuilder(s).reverse().toString(); } } });

Since the question asked about the Processing-specific answer, there is no direct equivalent. But Processing uses the Java 1.4 language level, and Java 1.1 introduced anonymous inner classes, which are a rough approximation.

Answer 5

For example :

public class Delegate
{
    interface Func
    {
        void execute(String s);
    }

    public static void doSomething(Func someDelegate) {
        someDelegate.execute("123");
    }

    public static void main(String [] args)
    {

        Func someFuncImplementation = new Func() 
        {
            @Override
            public void execute(String s) {
                System.out.println("Bla Bla :"  + s);
            }
        };

        Func someOtherFuncImplementation = new Func() 
        {
            @Override
            public void execute(String s) {
                System.out.println("Foo Bar:"  + s);
            }
        };


        doSomething(someFuncImplementation);
        doSomething(someOtherFuncImplementation);
    }
}

Output :

Bla Bla :123

Foo Bar:123

You have all forgotten here that a C# delegate first of all - is thread safe . These examples are just for a single thread App..

Most of the contemporary Apps are written on multithreaded concept.. So no one answer is the answer.

There is not an equivalent in Java
