A java list can be converted to a Traversable collection in Scala by utilizing toTraversable method of Java in Scala. Here, we 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[Int]()
list.add( 5 )
list.add( 6 )
list.add( 7 )
val tra = list.toTraversable
println(tra)
}
}
|
Therefore, a Buffer of integer is returned. Here, firstly a list is created where, the int elements are added to it utilizing add method. After that toTraversable method is utilized in order to convert the stated list to a Traversable collection.
Example:2#
import scala.collection.JavaConversions. _
object GfG
{
def main(args : Array[String])
{
val list = new java.util.ArrayList[Int]()
list.add( 3 )
list.add( 1 )
list.add( 2 )
val tra = list.toTraversable
println(tra)
}
}

It is same as above example but here the stated list is not in the proper order and the collection returned is also not in proper order.
