Re: RFR[8238286]: 'Add new flatMap stream operation that is more amenable to pushing’

[Peter Levart]

Hi Patrick,


In the test(s), you often use sink::accept:


         exerciseOps(data, s -> s.mapMulti((e, sink) -> 
IntStream.range(0, e).forEach(sink::accept)));


...where you could simply pass just sink:


         exerciseOps(data, s -> s.mapMulti((e, sink) -> 
IntStream.range(0, e).forEach(sink)));


Is this intentional and why?


Regards, Peter

This approach also has the benefit of reducing the exposure / footprint of the general functional interfaces.
