SUMMARY:OrlandoJUG - Hello Java 8 with Adam Davis
DESCRIPTION:Calling all Java lovers! Our March 2014 meeting is coming 
 up. Please RSVP, spread the word and invite a friend. Join us and keep
  your skills sharp. Network and find new projects and people for your 
 existing projects. We'll keep you filled in on upcoming events, too. 
 \n \nHere's what you have in store this month:\n \nHello Java 8 - wi
 th Adam Davis\nJava 8 is a giant step forward for the Java language. 
 In Project Lambda, Java gets a new closure syntax (lambda expressions)
 , method-references, and default and static methods on interfaces. It 
 manages to add many of the features of functional languages without lo
 sing the clarity and simplicity Java developers have come to expect. I
 n addition, many of the existing Java core library classes have been e
 nhanced with the new Streams API.  Aside from Project Lambda, Java 8 a
 lso gets a new Date and Time API (JSR 310), the Nashorn JavaScript eng
 ine, and removes the Permanent Generation from the HotSpot virtual mac
 hine, among other changes.  This talk will (hopefully) help you unders
 tand what's new in Java 8 and why you should use it.     Adam Davis m
 akes software. He's spent many years developing in Java (since Java 1.
 2) and has enjoyed using Spring and Hibernate. Lately he's been using 
 Groovy and Grails in addition to Java to create SaaS web applications 
 that help track finances for large institutions. Adam has a Masters an
 d a Bachelors degree in Computer Science from Georgia Tech.\n \nAdam 
 just published a book about Java 8 - take a peek at it online here - i
