Lets say I have a class Gizmo with a constructor that takes a String.
Lets say I want to convert a List<String> to a List<Gizmo>.
I might write:
List<String> strings = new ArrayList<>();
List<Gizmo> gizmos = strings
.stream()
.map(str -> new Gizmo(str))
.collect(Collectors.toList());
Now, the problem is that I'm told by IntelliJ that I can replace the lambda with a method reference. Thing is, I'm pretty sure method references can't take parameters.
