Is there auto type inferring in Java?

Question

Is there an auto variable type in Java like you have in C++?

An example:

for ( auto var : object_array)
    std::cout << var <<          


        

Answer 1

It's not a pure Java solution, however adding a library called lombok will enable the magic below to compile and work very much similar to auto keyword in C++

List strList = Arrays.asList("foo", "bar", "baz");
for (val s: strList){
    System.out.println(s.length());
}
