Issue 311 - Virtual Threads and Parallel Streams

Virtual threads should not be used for CPU intensive tasks. The recommended approach is to continue using parallel streams for processing large data sets. However, we should be careful when invoking a parallel stream from a virtual thread. In this newsletter we propose a "safety valve" that can protect us - sometimes.

Issue 310 - Garbage Collection and P99 Latency

In this guest article by Kirk Pepperdine, we learn about how P99 latency is affected by garbage collection stop-the-world events.

Issue 309 - TreeSet with Custom Comparator

We can construct our TreeSet with our own Comparator, however, we need to be careful that it conforms to the specification. The Comparator needs to be consistent with equals() and hashCode() of the elements, otherwise we might end up with a TreeSet with non-symmetric equals() behaviour.

Issue 308 - Formatting Inlined @value in Javadocs

Javadoc specifies the details of our methods using special tags such as @param and @return. After Java 5, we did not see new standard Javadoc tags for 13 years. The hope was that annotations would replace the chaos of doclets. But tags have not disappeared. In this newsletter, we examine several new tags to improve our Javadoc experience.

Issue 307 - AccessFlag Set for Modifiers

Reflection returns the modifiers of class elements as an unqualified int bitset. Unfortunately some of the bits have a different meaning depending on their context. For example, a method can have their transient bit set, even though that does not make sense for a method. In Java 20, we now have a more accurate and robust enum based representation for modifiers.
