Green papers: Java as a platform and a language
This green paper is taken from the book The Well-Grounded Java Developer: Covers Java 7 from Manning Publications. The authors introduce Java 7 and showcase Project Coin, a collection of small yet effective new features. You'll find out about the new syntax, such as an improved way of handling exceptions (multi-catch). You'll also learn about Automatic Resource Management and how it helps you to avoid bugs in the code that deals with files or other resources.
