private void writeSomeData() throws IOException { DataOutputStream out = new DataOutputStream(new FileOutputStream("data")); out.writeInt(666); out.writeUTF("Hello"); out.close();}

private void writeSomeData() throws IOException { DataOutputStream out = new DataOutputStream(new FileOutputStream("data")); out.writeInt(666); out.writeUTF("Hello"); out.close();}

what if...

// Do something useful with those 3 streams! // out, in1 and in2 will be closed in any case

Not just syntactic sugarClutter-free, correct code

close(): - be more specific than java.lang.Exception - no exception if it can’t fail - no exception that shall not be suppressed (e.g., java.lang.InterruptedException)

Non-denotable type

No denotable typeto generate a class

Less ceremony when using generics

No diamond with inner classes

Simplified varargs

private static <T> void doSomethingBad(List<T> list, T... values) { values[0] = list.get(0);}

public static void main(String[] args) { List list = Arrays.asList("foo", "bar", "baz"); doSomethingBad(list, 1, 2, 3);}

private static <T> void doSomethingBad(List<T> list, T... values) { values[0] = list.get(0);}

public static void main(String[] args) { List list = Arrays.asList("foo", "bar", "baz"); doSomethingBad(list, 1, 2, 3);}

Heap Pollution: List = List<String>

This yields warnings + crash:

private static <T> void doSomethingGood(List<T> list, T... values) { for (T value : values) { list.add(value); }}

private static <T> void doSomethingGood(List<T> list, T... values) { for (T value : values) { list.add(value); }}

$ javac Good.java Note: Good.java uses unchecked or unsafe operations.Note: Recompile with -Xlint:unchecked for details.

@SuppressWarnings({“unchecked”,“varargs”})

public static void main(String[] args) { List<String> list = new LinkedList<>(); doSomethingGood(list, "hi", "there", "!");}

$ javac Good.java $

@SafeVarargsprivate static <T> void doSomethingGood(List<T> list, T... values) { for (T value : values) { list.add(value); }}

static, final methods, constructors

Mark your code as safe for varargs

You can’t cheat with @SafeVarags

Remove @SuppressWarnings in client code and pay attention to real warnings

Multi-catch & more precise rethrow

Class<?> stringClass = Class.forName("java.lang.String"); Object instance = stringClass.newInstance(); Method toStringMethod = stringClass.getMethod("toString"); System.out.println(toStringMethod.invoke(instance));

try { Class<?> stringClass = Class.forName("java.lang.String"); Object instance = stringClass.newInstance(); Method toStringMethod = stringClass.getMethod("toString"); System.out.println(toStringMethod.invoke(instance));} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) { e.printStackTrace();} catch (InstantiationException e) { e.printStackTrace();} catch (IllegalAccessException e) { e.printStackTrace();} catch (NoSuchMethodException e) { e.printStackTrace();} catch (InvocationTargetException e) { e.printStackTrace();}

try { Class<?> stringClass = Class.forName("java.lang.String"); Object instance = stringClass.newInstance(); Method toStringMethod = stringClass.getMethod("toString"); System.out.println(toStringMethod.invoke(instance));} catch (Throwable t) { t.printStackTrace();}

try { Class<?> stringClass = Class.forName("java.lang.String"); Object instance = stringClass.newInstance(); Method toStringMethod = stringClass.getMethod("toString"); System.out.println(toStringMethod.invoke(instance));} catch (Throwable t) { t.printStackTrace();}

How about SecurityException?

try { Class<?> stringClass = Class.forName("java.lang.String"); Object instance = stringClass.newInstance(); Method toStringMethod = stringClass.getMethod("toString"); System.out.println(toStringMethod.invoke(instance));} catch (ClassNotFoundException | InstantiationException | IllegalAccessException | NoSuchMethodException | InvocationTargetException e) { e.printStackTrace();}

Union of alternatives

catch (SomeException e)

Now implicitly final unless assigned...

static class SomeRootException extends Exception { }static class SomeChildException extends SomeRootException { }static class SomeOtherChildException extends SomeRootException { }

public static void main(String... args) throws Throwable {try { throw new SomeChildException();} catch (SomeRootException firstException) { try { throw firstException; } catch (SomeOtherChildException secondException) { System.out.println("I got you!"); }}

static class SomeRootException extends Exception { }static class SomeChildException extends SomeRootException { }static class SomeOtherChildException extends SomeRootException { }

public static void main(String... args) throws Throwable {try { throw new SomeChildException();} catch (SomeRootException firstException) { try { throw firstException; } catch (SomeOtherChildException secondException) { System.out.println("I got you!"); }}

$ javac Imprecise.java Imprecise.java:13: error: exception SomeOtherChildException is never thrown in body of corresponding try statement } catch (SomeOtherChildException secondException) { ^1 error

Less clutterBe preciseDo not capture unintended exceptions

Better exception flow analysis
