Java

Java is an Object Oriented programming language of the “curly-brackets” variety, and is owned by the Oracle Corporation, through its acquisition of Sun Microsystems.

Java was originally conceived as a “write once, run everywhere” language, not limited to a specific platform or architecture, and has strong roots in C and C++.

Gson can work with arbitrary Java objects including pre-existing objects, even if you don’t have access to the source code. Gson also supports Generics, unlike most other similar Java-to-JSON technologies.

Gson is supported natively by Android 3.x onwards – here’s a good place to start

You might also want to check out Jackson JSON parser + JSON generator which purports to be meaner and leaner.

Oracle lifts the curtain on Java 7

Oracle is putting the finishing touches to its first major update of Java since the acquisition of Sun in 2009. Java 7 is touted for release at the end of July.

The new Java 7 language features, collectively known as “Project Coin”, provide features such as improved exception handling (multi-catch), strings in switch statements; try-with-resources; easier Generics instantiation (“diamond”), and simplified invocation of varargs method.

Devotees of dynamicly-typed languages such as Scala, Ruby and Python will be glad to note that support and performance from the JVM and Java SE API will be almost on par with Java code.

A lot of the features originally touted to appear in Java 7 will apparently now be shipping with Java 8 – Oracle insiders are hinting at some major changes to look forward to in the next 18-24 months, but for the time being there is plenty of new stuff for Java developers to get their teeth into.

If you want to get your hands dirty with some of the key new features in Java 7, have a look at our Expert Java Programming course.
