OrlandoJUG Reading List ::: from JavaSpecialists

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.

Issue 306 - Measuring compact strings memory savings

JEP 254 replaced the char[] in our Strings with byte[]. How much memory does this save in our Strings? In this newsletter we show how we can determine this from a heap dump file.

Issue 305 - Contributing BigInteger.parallelMultiply() to OpenJDK

BigInteger has clever algorithms for multiplying large numbers. Unfortunately multiply() is single-threaded. Until now. In this newsletter I describe how the new parallelMultiply() method works and also how we can all contribute to the OpenJDK.

Issue 304 - ObjectInputFilter

JEP 290 introduced the ObjectInputFilter, which we can use to filter objects returned from an ObjectInputStream. We examine three ways of making filters, through subclassing, with factory methods and with text patterns, and then show some interesting edge cases.

Issue 303 - Null Keys and Values in Maps

Some Map implementations allow null keys and values. This leads to funky behaviour when calling putIfAbsent() and the compute functions. In this newsletter we look a bit more closely at the issues at hand when allowing nulls in maps.
