Interface Streamer<V,T>

Type Parameters:
V - The type of the store from which to stream items
T - The item type to stream
Functional Interface:
This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
@FunctionalInterface public interface Streamer<V,T>
A streamer returns a stream of items from a collection-like object (referred to as a 'store') given as the argument. For example, in the case of a map data structure a streamer may return any of its key, value or entry set. If the actual type of the collection is not known the {streamRaw(Object) method should be used.
