OptionalLong (net.sourceforge.streamsupport:streamsupport 1.7.4 API)

java.lang.Object
- java8.util.OptionalLong

```
public final class OptionalLong
extends Object
```
A container object which may or may not contain a long value. If a value is present, isPresent() returns true. If no value is present, the object is considered empty and isPresent() returns false.
Additional methods that depend on the presence or absence of a contained value are provided, such as orElse() (returns a default value if no value is present) and ifPresent() (performs an action if a value is present).
This is a value-based class; use of identity-sensitive operations (including reference equality (==), identity hash code, or synchronization) on instances of OptionalLong may have unpredictable results and should be avoided.
API Note:
OptionalLong is primarily intended for use as a method return type where there is a clear need to represent "no result". A variable whose type is OptionalLong should never itself be null; it should always point to an OptionalLong instance.

  - empty
```
public static OptionalLong empty()
```
    Returns an empty OptionalLong instance. No value is present for this OptionalLong.
    API Note:
    Though it may be tempting to do so, avoid testing if an object is empty by comparing with == or != against instances returned by OptionalLong.empty(). There is no guarantee that it is a singleton. Instead, use isEmpty() or isPresent().
    
    Returns:
    
    an empty OptionalLong.
  - of
```
public static OptionalLong of(long value)
```
    Returns an OptionalLong describing the given value.
    
    Parameters:
    
    value - the value to describe
    
    Returns:
    
    an OptionalLong with the value present
  - getAsLong
```
public long getAsLong()
```
    If a value is present, returns the value, otherwise throws NoSuchElementException.
    API Note:
    The preferred alternative to this method is orElseThrow().
    
    Returns:
    
    the value described by this OptionalLong
    
    Throws:
    
    NoSuchElementException - if no value is present
  - isPresent
```
public boolean isPresent()
```
    If a value is present, returns true, otherwise false.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if a value is present, otherwise false
  - isEmpty
```
public boolean isEmpty()
```
    If a value is not present, returns true, otherwise false.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if a value is not present, otherwise false
    
    Since:
    
    11
  - ifPresent
```
public void ifPresent(LongConsumer action)
```
    If a value is present, performs the given action with the value, otherwise does nothing.
    
    Parameters:
    
    action - the action to be performed, if a value is present
    
    Throws:
    
    NullPointerException - if value is present and the given action is null
  - ifPresentOrElse
```
public void ifPresentOrElse(LongConsumer action,
                            Runnable emptyAction)
```
    If a value is present, performs the given action with the value, otherwise performs the given empty-based action.
    
    Parameters:
    
    action - the action to be performed, if a value is present
    
    emptyAction - the empty-based action to be performed, if no value is present
    
    Throws:
    
    NullPointerException - if a value is present and the given action is null, or no value is present and the given empty-based action is null.

  - stream
```
public LongStream stream()
```
    If a value is present, returns a sequential LongStream containing only that value, otherwise returns an empty LongStream.
    API Note:
    This method can be used to transform a Stream of optional longs to a LongStream of present longs:
```
     Stream<OptionalLong> os = ..
     LongStream s = os.flatMapToLong(OptionalLong::stream)
 
```
    Returns:
    
    the optional value as a LongStream

  - orElse
```
public long orElse(long other)
```
    If a value is present, returns the value, otherwise returns other.
    
    Parameters:
    
    other - the value to be returned, if no value is present
    
    Returns:
    
    the value, if present, otherwise other
  - orElseGet
```
public long orElseGet(LongSupplier supplier)
```
    If a value is present, returns the value, otherwise returns the result produced by the supplying function.
    
    Parameters:
    
    supplier - the supplying function that produces a value to be returned
    
    Returns:
    
    the value, if present, otherwise the result produced by the supplying function
    
    Throws:
    
    NullPointerException - if no value is present and the supplying function is null
  - orElseThrow
```
public long orElseThrow()
```
    If a value is present, returns the value, otherwise throws NoSuchElementException.
    
    Returns:
    
    the value described by this OptionalLong
    
    Throws:
    
    NoSuchElementException - if no value is present

  - orElseThrow
```
public <X extends Throwable> long orElseThrow(Supplier<? extends X> exceptionSupplier)
                                       throws X extends Throwable
```
    If a value is present, returns the value, otherwise throws an exception produced by the exception supplying function.
    API Note:
    A method reference to the exception constructor with an empty argument list can be used as the supplier. For example, IllegalStateException::new
    
    Type Parameters:
    
    X - Type of the exception to be thrown
    
    Parameters:
    
    exceptionSupplier - the supplying function that produces an exception to be thrown
    
    Returns:
    
    the value, if present
    
    Throws:
    
    X - if no value is present
    
    NullPointerException - if no value is present and the exception supplying function is null
    
    X extends Throwable
  - equals
```
public boolean equals(Object obj)
```
    Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this OptionalLong. The other object is considered equal if:
    - it is also an OptionalLong and;
    - both instances have no value present or;
    - the present values are "equal to" each other via ==.
    Overrides:
    
    equals in class Object
    
    Parameters:
    
    obj - an object to be tested for equality
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the other object is "equal to" this object otherwise false
  - hashCode
```
public int hashCode()
```
    Returns the hash code of the value, if present, otherwise 0 (zero) if no value is present.
    
    Overrides:
    
    hashCode in class Object
    
    Returns:
    
    hash code value of the present value or 0 if no value is present
  - toString
```
public String toString()
```
    Returns a non-empty string representation of this OptionalLong suitable for debugging. The exact presentation format is unspecified and may vary between implementations and versions.
    Implementation Requirements:
    If a value is present the result must include its string representation in the result. Empty and present OptionalLongs must be unambiguously differentiable.
    
    Overrides:
    
    toString in class Object
    
    Returns:
    
    the string representation of this instance
