Last Updated :

A java list of Strings can be converted to an Iterable in Scala by utilizing toIterable method of Java in Scala. Here, you need to import Scala’s JavaConversions object in order to make this conversions work else an error will occur.
Now, lets see some examples and then discuss how it works in details.
Example:1#
import scala.collection.JavaConversions. _
object GfG
{
def main(args : Array[String])
{
val list = new java.util.ArrayList[String]()
list.add( "geeks" )
list.add( "for" )
list.add( "geeks" )
val iterab = list.toIterable
println(iterab)
}
}
|
Output:
Buffer(geeks, for, geeks)
Therefore, a buffer is returned and the elements are present in the order of the stated list and duplicate elements are not eliminated here.
Example:2#
import scala.collection.JavaConversions. _
object GfG
{
def main(args : Array[String])
{
val list = new java.util.ArrayList[String]()
list.add( "I" )
list.add( "am an" )
list.add( "author" )
val iterab = list.toIterable
println(iterab)
}
}
|
Output:
Buffer(I, am an, author)
Here, the stated list is not in proper order so the resultant output is also not in proper order. That is, the strings with more number of words are not displayed in the last, they are returned as stated in the list in the form of buffer.
