java中->是什么意思？

在《JAVA核心編程》中，有一段這樣的代碼

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.io.File;
 
public class ImageViewer {
    public static void main(String[] args){
        EventQueue.invokeLater(() -> {
            JFrame frame = new ImageViewerFrame();
            frame.setTitle("ImageViewer");
            frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
            frame.setVisible(true);
 
        });
    }
}
class ImageViewerFrame extends JFrame{
    private JLabel label;
    private JFileChooser chooser;
    private static final int DEFAULT_WIDTH = 300;
    private static final int DEFAULT_HEIGHT = 400;
 
    public ImageViewerFrame(){
        setSize(DEFAULT_WIDTH,DEFAULT_HEIGHT);
 
        label = new JLabel();
        add(label);
 
        chooser = new JFileChooser();
        chooser.setCurrentDirectory(new File("."));
 
        JMenuBar menuBar = new JMenuBar();
        setJMenuBar(menuBar);
        JMenu menu = new JMenu();
        menuBar.add(menu);
 
        JMenuItem openItem = new JMenuItem("open");
        menu.add(openItem);
        openItem.addActionListener(Event -> {
            int result = chooser.showOpenDialog(null);
 
            if (result == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION){
                String name = chooser.getSelectedFile().getPath();
                label.setIcon(new ImageIcon(name));
            }
        });
 
        JMenuItem exitItem = new JMenuItem("exit");
        menu.add(exitItem);
        exitItem.addActionListener(Event -> System.exit(0));
    }
}

可以看到兩處這樣的代碼

() -> {
            JFrame frame = new ImageViewerFrame();
            frame.setTitle("ImageViewer");
            frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
            frame.setVisible(true);
 
        }

Event -> {
            int result = chooser.showOpenDialog(null);
 
            if (result == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION){
                String name = chooser.getSelectedFile().getPath();
                label.setIcon(new ImageIcon(name));
            }

Java8的lambda表達式。就是匿名函數。

上面那一段可以看成如下:

EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                JFrame frame = new ImageViewerFrame();
                frame.setTitle("ImageViewer");
                frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
                frame.setVisible(true);
            }
        });

下面一段可以看成:

openItem.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                int result = chooser.showOpenDialog(null);
 
                if (result == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION){
                    String name = chooser.getSelectedFile().getPath();
                    label.setIcon(new ImageIcon(name));
                }
            }
        });

只不過java自動幫你翻譯了一下
