How to perform Stream functions on an Iterable? [duplicate]

Question

In Java 8, the Stream class does not have any method to wrap a an Iterable.

Instead, I am obtaining the Spliterator from the Iterable and then obtaining a Stream from StreamSupport like this:

boolean parallel = true;  StreamSupport.stream(spliterator(), parallel)                 .filter(Row::isEmpty)                 .collect(Collectors.toList())                 .forEach(this::deleteRow); 

Is there some other way of generating Stream operations on an Iterable that I am missing?

My similar question got marked as duplicate, but here is the helper methods I've used to avoid some of the boilerplate:

public static <T> Stream<T> stream(Iterable<T> in) {     return StreamSupport.stream(in.spliterator(), false); }  public static <T> Stream<T> parallelStream(Iterable<T> in) {     return StreamSupport.stream(in.spliterator(), true); }
