Description misterm 2013-02-13 14:14:12 UTC 
One of the most important improvements in b76 is the improved inference that allows expressions such as:

Collection<String> strings = myCollection.parallelStream().map(Functions.string()).collect(toList());

to compile without requiring Collectors.<String>toList() to be used explicitly. The current compiler shipped in the editor does not contain such improvements yet, making it hard to use lambda.

Product Version = NetBeans IDE Dev (Build jdk8lambda-1641-on-20130208)
Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.8.0-ea

Should be fixed in current dev build.
