Java Versions, Features and History

Good post! Its pretty neat for a quick recap of which feature showed up in which release :)

I didn’t quite catch a few of the feature.

Whats Automatic Null Handling in Java 7? Do you mean the Elvis operator? It was proposed as part of project coins, but wasn’t implemented in Java 7.

Also whats the difference between Type Inference for Generic Instance Creation and Diamond Syntax?

very nice post!
It’s a quick revise of java features.

Thank you!

Very Nice Post!!

It is really a nice look-up information page. Lot of features of java6 and Java7 was not known to me due to your share now I know. I am user of Java6. Thanks.

nice share ..

Java SE 7 referens implementation is not Sun/Oracles any more, it’s OpenJDK. I guess that might be important em enough to be in this list. Oracle has changed the license so it can’t be redistributed in binary form by others any more. That is why Sun JDK will be removed from all distributions in the future.
Use OpenJDK instead.

thanks a lot nicely explained with images
