Effective Java™ Reloaded: This Time It's for Real

Session ID: TS-2689
Session Title: Effective Java™ Reloaded: This Time It's for Real
Session Abstract: It's been more than five years since Effective Java™ was released. The Java platform has evolved, and we've learned more about how to use it to best effect. This session covers new material added to the second edition, which makes its debut at this conference. The presentation, which should be useful to every working programmer, contains plenty of new material that was not covered in the 2006 session.
Track: Java SE
Duration: 60
Speaker(s): Joshua Bloch, Google, Inc.

Opinion: Josh Bloch is Chief Java Architect at Google. 'nuff said ! Most of the presentation was pure Generics madness: Collections, new patterns, how (not) to use wildcards, etc. Very impressive. These pretty wild OO techniques are a sample from the new edition of Effective Java, which should be out... someday. Looks like a must read.
