abstract def apply(from: From): Combiner[Elem, To]

Creates a new builder on request of a collection.

  • from
    • the collection requesting the builder to be created.
  • returns
    • a builder for collections of type To with element type Elem . The collections framework usually arranges things so that the created builder will build the same kind of collection as from .
