Represents an operation that accepts a single input argument and returns no
result. Unlike most other functional interfaces, Consumer is expected
to operate via side-effects.
This is a functional interface
whose functional method is accept(Object).
Public Method Summary
|
abstract
void
|
accept(T t)
Performs this operation on the given argument.

|
Consumer<T>
|
andThen( Consumer<? super T> after)
Returns a composed Consumer that performs, in sequence, this
operation followed by the after operation.

(T t)
Performs this operation on the given argument.
public
Consumer<T>
andThen
(Consumer<? super T> after)
Returns a composed Consumer that performs, in sequence, this
operation followed by the after operation. If performing either
operation throws an exception, it is relayed to the caller of the
composed operation. If performing this operation throws an exception,
the after operation will not be performed.
Parameters
| after |
the operation to perform after this operation |
Returns
- a composed
Consumer that performs in sequence this
operation followed by the after operation
