----------------------------------------------
Summary: Support for Transformer in LazyList
Key: COLLECTIONS-694
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COLLECTIONS-694
Project: Commons Collections
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: List
Affects Versions: 4.2
Reporter: Stephan Windmüller
{{LazyList}} supports a {{Factory}} for creating new elements on first access.
Since a {{Factory}} does not take any arguments, those elements can not depend
on any input values.
A possible use case is a list of objects from a database, fetched by their id.
If an element at a specific position is requested, it is retrieved from the
database lazily. This would require support of a {{Transformer}} (from id to
database object).
