JEE Town Reading List ::: from JavaSpecialists

Issue 331 - Virtual Thread States

No major feature has been adopted as quickly into production systems as virtual threads. Not generics. Not streams. But there are some catches. Original Java threads have six states. Virtual threads have 20 states, which Java maps onto the original six states. However, sometimes it can be useful to know what the virtual threads state is. In this newsletter we use deep reflection to learn how that works.

Issue 330 - Looking Back on 25 Years

Today marks our 25th newsletter anniversary, when I sent out an email to 80 colleagues and friends. To celebrate, we are looking at some of the most popular newsletters over the years. Thanks for being part of this adventure.

Issue 329 - Filtering Exceptions via try

One of the ways of figuring out the type of an exception is with instanceof. Another is to re-throw it, and to use the catch mechanism to sort things out. In this newsletter we look at different options, including switch with pattern matching.
