I had quite a big list of numbers. I needed to apply some operation on them, then take only those results that satisfy some condition. The list is sequential, so once I find the number that does not satisfy the condition, I can stop looking.
I wanted to avoid doing too much computation, so I moved on like in this example:
List(1,2,3,4,5).view.map(2 *).takeWhile(_ < 8)
But it gives me an exception:
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: SeqViewM(...).newBuilder
at scala.collection.TraversableViewLike$class.newBuilder(TraversableViewLike.scala:69)
at scala.collection.SeqViewLike$$anon$3.newBuilder(SeqViewLike.scala:77)
at scala.collection.IterableLike$class.takeWhile(IterableLike.scala:139)
at scala.collection.SeqViewLike$$anon$3.takeWhile(SeqViewLike.scala:77)
at scala.collection.SeqViewLike$$anon$3.takeWhile(SeqViewLike.scala:77)
Using Scala 2.9.0.1 (same behavior with 2.9.1). What is wrong here?
Looks like a bug. (File a bug report, if it's not already reported and/or fixed!)
In the meantime, you can use iterator as a workaround for this particular code:
List(1,2,3,4,5).iterator.map(2 *).takeWhile(8 >).toList
(drop the .toList
if you're happy to end up with an iterator).
