回顾Java 8 StreamAPI设计,我对Stream.reduce()参数的泛型不变性感到惊讶:

<U> U reduce(U identity,
             BiFunction<U,? super T,U> accumulator,
             BinaryOperator<U> combiner)

相同API的看似更通用的版本可能在个别引用上应用了协方差/逆变U,例如:

<U> U reduce(U identity,
             BiFunction<? super U, ? super T, ? extends U> accumulator,
             BiFunction<? super U, ? super U, ? extends U> combiner)

这将允许以下目前无法实现的目标:

// Assuming we want to reuse these tools all over the place:
BiFunction<Number, Number, Double> numberAdder =
    (t, u) -> t.doubleValue() + u.doubleValue();

// This currently doesn't work, but would work with the suggestion
Stream<Number> stream …
