About FunctionalJ

FunctionalJ is a library which makes it easy to use functional programming constructs in Java code.

FunctionalJ provides the following features:

• Easily represent functions as objects
• Code using functional programming concepts such as mapping, filtering, and folding
• Use parameter binding, also known as partial application
• Write methods that accept functions as parameters and/or return functions as a result (higher-order functions)
• Replace procedural code with functional code for simpler, less error-prone computations
• Define functions by implementing an interface, subclassing a base class, or with a reflection mechanism, according to your preference
• Use a reflection mechanism to easily create functions that refer to existing constructors, instance methods, or static methods
• No need to deal with exceptions if you don't want to.

Summary of what is new in version 1.0:

• Renamed packages to net.sf.functionalj.*
• Major refactoring from version 0.8 to improve and simplify the API and provide stronger support for Java 1.5 generics
• Repackaged reflection mechanisms
• Bug fixes.
