LongStream.Builder (Java SE 9 & JDK 9 )

All Superinterfaces:

LongConsumer

Enclosing interface:

LongStream
```
public static interface LongStream.Builder
extends LongConsumer
```
A mutable builder for a LongStream.
A stream builder has a lifecycle, which starts in a building phase, during which elements can be added, and then transitions to a built phase, after which elements may not be added. The built phase begins begins when the build() method is called, which creates an ordered stream whose elements are the elements that were added to the stream builder, in the order they were added.

Since:

1.8

- Method Detail
  - accept
```
void accept(long t)
```
    Adds an element to the stream being built.
    
    Specified by:
    
    accept in interface LongConsumer
    
    Parameters:
    
    t - the input argument
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalStateException - if the builder has already transitioned to the built state
  - add
```
default LongStream.Builder add(long t)
```
    Adds an element to the stream being built.
    Implementation Requirements:
    
    The default implementation behaves as if:
    accept(t) return this;
    
    Parameters:
    
    t - the element to add
    
    Returns:
    
    this builder
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalStateException - if the builder has already transitioned to the built state
  - build
```
LongStream build()
```
    Builds the stream, transitioning this builder to the built state. An IllegalStateException is thrown if there are further attempts to operate on the builder after it has entered the built state.
    
    Returns:
    
    the built stream
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalStateException - if the builder has already transitioned to the built state
