Is there an equivalent Java while-stream with variable assignment

Is there a thread equivalent to the following

List<Integer> ints;
while (!(ints = this.nextInts()).isEmpty()) {
// do work
}

firstly, thanks for the comments by @Olivier Grégoire. he changes his response to new knowledge.

write your own Spliteratorfor an unknown size nextInts, then you can use StreamSupport#streamto create a stream for nextInts. eg:

generateUntil(this::nextInts, List::isEmpty).forEach(list -> {
    //do works
});

import static java.util.stream.StreamSupport.stream;

<T> Stream<T> generateUntil(final Supplier<T> generator, Predicate<T> stop) {
    long unknownSize = Long.MAX_VALUE;

    return stream(new AbstractSpliterator<T>(unknownSize, Spliterator.ORDERED) {
        @Override
        public boolean tryAdvance(Consumer<? super T> action) {
            T value = generator.get();

            if (stop.test(value)) {
                return false;
            }

            action.accept(value);
            return true;
        }
    }, false);
}
