Hi Paul, thank you for your comments. BTW I filed a CCC request in the meantime, as this change also affects the details of when exceptions are thrown. Answers below ...

Indeed the list cannot be empty, and the stream will always produce a result, so get() it is.

I've updated it to use static methods only, which was the intent, and which is what JavaDocExamplesTest covers. A test for using virtual methods was added anyway. > T8139885.java > — > > Could we rename that test to say “LoopCombinatorTest” ? With more and more bugs being covered by this test, that clearly makes sense. :-) I like the suggestion to split the test in several ones you made in http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2016-February/039138.html - I've filed the RFE here: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8150832 A new webrev with the above changes (save the renaming) is at http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mhaupt/8150635/webrev.01 Best, Michael -- <http://www.oracle.com/> Dr. Michael Haupt | Principal Member of Technical Staff Phone: +49 331 200 7277 | Fax: +49 331 200 7561 Oracle Java Platform Group | LangTools Team | Nashorn Oracle Deutschland B.V. & Co.
