java.lang.Object
- org.springframework.boot.util.LambdaSafe

```
public final class LambdaSafe
extends Object
```
Utility that can be used to invoke lambdas in a safe way. Primarily designed to help support generically typed callbacks where class cast exceptions need to be dealt with due to class erasure.
