NullPointerException in Collectors.toMap with null entry values

You can work around this known bug in OpenJDK with this:

Map<Integer, Boolean> collect = list.stream()
        .collect(HashMap::new, (m,v)->m.put(v.getId(), v.getAnswer()), HashMap::putAll);

It is not that much pretty, but it works. Result:

1: true
2: true
3: null

(this tutorial helped me the most.)

EDIT:

Unlike Collectors.toMap, this will silently replace values if you have the same key multiple times, as @mmdemirbas pointed out in the comments. If you don’t want this, look at the link in the comment.
