J2se 5.0 New Features

Recommended Posts

hi friends,

Now its been some time since jdk 1.5 has been released. It has a few new features like

Enhanced 'for' loop
Autoboxing
Static Imports
Varargs and a few others....

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/index.html

I found the for loop and autoboxing would be quite useful, but am yet to look into other features. If anyone has used them, please post your comments.

Cheers.

Dunno why, but i prefer using old one version J2K 1.4.2 for my workstation Java Machine and Server's enviroument for Apache Tomcat. But as for me Tomcat 5.0 is much better and stable than previous one... Can't say same about JDK 1.5.0 ...My skills going not so far in JSP and Java, but i'm also using JDK 1.4.2 for programming midlets for mobile phones! I'm using Sun One Studio 2004 (built on NetBeans) it's really cool :D

There are a lot of nice things in the 1.5 release. Just like cse-icons I quite like the addition of the for-each loop and autoboxing. I really hated those back and forth castings from int to Integer and vice-versa *shudder*.

 

Here is the page with all the new features and enhancements.
