Method calls in switch and for statements

Question

I have 2 questions concerning method calls in switch and for statements. Consider these two chunks of code:
1)
     switch (foo.getIntegerValue()){
          case 1:
          case 2:
     }My question is, is getIntegerValue() being called for every case statement (since it has to compare with each case) or is the method called only once?
2)
for (Foo bla : xyz.compileFoos()) {
}Is compileFoos called once or on every iteration?
I assume it gets called only once but I would like to be sure. The reason I ask is of course to avoid multiple method calls.
any help is appreciated

     Once, and the value returned compared to each "case" in turn.

any help is appreciatedAlso once, and the returned list/set/array is iterated over.
