How can I convert a Java Iterable to a Scala Iterable?

Question

Is there an easy way to convert a

java.lang.Iterable[_]

to a

Scala.Iterable[_]

?

Answer 1

Starting Scala 2.13, package scala.jdk.CollectionConverters replaces deprecated packages scala.collection.JavaConverters/JavaConversions:

import scala.jdk.CollectionConverters._

// val javaIterable: java.lang.Iterable[Int] = Iterable(1, 2, 3).asJava
javaIterable.asScala
// Iterable[Int] = List(1, 2, 3)
