JavaConverters

object JavaConverters extends DecorateAsJava with DecorateAsScala

A collection of decorators that allow converting between Scala and Java collections using asScala and asJava methods.

The following conversions are supported via asJava, asScala

scala.collection.Iterable               <=> java.lang.Iterable
scala.collection.Iterator               <=> java.util.Iterator
scala.collection.mutable.Buffer         <=> java.util.List
scala.collection.mutable.Set            <=> java.util.Set
scala.collection.mutable.Map            <=> java.util.Map
scala.collection.mutable.concurrent.Map <=> java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentMap

In all cases, converting from a source type to a target type and back again will return the original source object, e.g.

import scala.collection.JavaConverters._

val sl = new scala.collection.mutable.ListBuffer[Int]
val jl : java.util.List[Int] = sl.asJava
val sl2 : scala.collection.mutable.Buffer[Int] = jl.asScala
assert(sl eq sl2)

The following conversions are also supported, but the direction from Scala to Java is done by the more specifically named methods: asJavaCollection, asJavaEnumeration, asJavaDictionary.

scala.collection.Iterable    <=> java.util.Collection
scala.collection.Iterator    <=> java.util.Enumeration
scala.collection.mutable.Map <=> java.util.Dictionary

In addition, the following one way conversions are provided via asJava:

scala.collection.Seq         => java.util.List
scala.collection.mutable.Seq => java.util.List
scala.collection.Set         => java.util.Set
scala.collection.Map         => java.util.Map

The following one way conversion is provided via asScala:

java.util.Properties => scala.collection.mutable.Map
