OptionalLong help us to create an object which may or may not contain a Long value. The orElseThrow() method help us to get the value and if value is not present then this method will throw NoSuchElementException. Syntax:

public Long orElseThrow()

Parameters: This method accepts nothing. Return value: This method returns the Long value described by this OptionalLong. Exception: This method throws NoSuchElementException if no value is present Below programs illustrate orElseThrow() method: Program 1: 

Java




// Java program to demonstrate
// OptionalLong.orElseThrow() method
import java.util.OptionalLong;
 
public class GFG {
 
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
 
        // create a OptionalLong
        OptionalLong opLong = OptionalLong.of(45213246);
 
        // get value using orElseThrow()
        System.out.println("Value extracted using"
                           + " orElseThrow() = "
                           + opLong.orElseThrow());
    }
}


Output:

Value extracted using orElseThrow() = 45213246

Program 2:

            long value = opLong.orElseThrow();
        }
