Reference Guide: diagram ignores Java Stream API

Chealer opened this issue · 0 comments

The About Eclipse Collections section of the Eclipse Collections Reference Guide contains a EclipseCollectionDiagram.png diagram. One of the boxes at the bottom contains the following:

The key enhancement Eclipse Collections provides is internal iteration: the collection objects themselves furnish the methods for iterative operations that would otherwise require external looping structures, such as for and while.

While the beginning is correct, the Stream API added in version 8 of JDK allows iterative operations without resorting to looping structures.

This diagram should be updated to remove this part or clarify how EC remains relevant with the Stream API.
