My common, open-source utilities. Support Java 8+.
The project contains Tupling, a non-nullable, type-safe tuple library for Java. Though projects like commons-lang3, javatuples have already provided similar tuple libraries, they did not provide features like:
- Support up to 26 tuples
- Can't be more because there are too few letters in English
- Null checking
- Tuple concatenation
- Public final field for elements
- Shortened member accessing codes
When using javatuples, you'll have to write something like:
// p is a Pair<A, B>
p.getLeft().someOperation();
But with Tupling, all you need to do is simply:
p.a.someOperation();
Such feature shortens your code.
And since Optional is shipping since Java 8, there is no need for null
in Java. Tupling provides null checking:
// Throws NullPointerException using Tupling
Tuple2.of(null, "123");
// Nothing throws with Apache Commons Lang or javatuples
Pair.with(null, "123");
Attention: The code is automatically generated. Modify those template files named *.jinja
under /scripts/generate-tuple-code
, if you want to make some changes.
