Are resources closed before or after the finally?

The resource gets closed before catch or finally blocks. See this tutorial. A try-with-resources statement can have catch and finally blocks just like an ordinary try statement. In a try-with-resources statement, any catch or finally block is run after the resources declared have been closed. To evaluate this is a sample code: class ClosableDummy implements … Read more

Java 10: Will Java 7’s Diamond Inference Work with Local Type Inference?

Yes, var and the diamond operator can be combined together. The compiler will infer the most specific generic type: var list = new ArrayList<>(); // Infers ArrayList<Object> var list = new ArrayList<>(List.of(1, 2, 3)); // Infers ArrayList<Integer> And you can even combine them with an anonymous class: var list = new ArrayList<>() {};

Why can’t Java 7 diamond operator be used with anonymous classes?

This was discussed on the “Project Coin” mailing list. In substance (emphasis mine): Internally, a Java compiler operates over a richer set of types than those that can be written down explicitly in a Java program. The compiler-internal types which cannot be written in a Java program are called non-denotable types. Non-denotable types can occur … Read more

What means “javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: server certificate change is restrictedduring renegotiation” and how to prevent it?

This error message in client layer code is a consequence of code hardening following “SSL V3.0 Poodle Vulnerability – CVE-2014-3566” in recent Java updates. And it is a bug – here are work-arounds in case you cannot update your JRE immediately: A first option is to force TLS protocol when establishing HTTPS connection: If you … Read more

Type-parameterized field of a generic class becomes invisible after upgrading to Java 7

This appears to be a javac6 bug, which is fixed in javac7. The workaround is by up-cast: ((Area<?>)area).parent = this; Which seems really odd – why would we need an up-cast to access a member in super class? The root problem is, private members are specifically excluded from inheritance, therefore A does not have a … Read more

Android import java.nio.file.Files; cannot be resolved

Android does not offer all classes that “conventional java” has to offer. Files is one of the classes, that Android doesn’t offer. You can have a look at the classes available in Android here: http://developer.android.com/reference/classes.html So unfortunately you have to use other functions / classes to implement the same functionality. PS: The class is shown … Read more
