Baeldung Weekly Review 27
At the very beginning of 2014 I decided to track my reading habits and share the best stuff here, on Baeldung.
2014 has been quite the year, covering each week with a review. I’ve been doing a lot more reading to make sure I cover and curate stuff that has value and is actually worth reading.
Let me know in the comments if you’re finding my reviews interesting and useful.
Here we go…
1. Spring and Java
We’re continuing the deep-dive into Jigsaw here, with a lot more practical details.
>> Who Cares About toString Performance?
Cool and useful insights into the performance of various toString implementations – generated with various libraries by the IDE. Who knew?
>> String Substring
The low level memory implications of String.substring over the history of Java.
>> More compact Mockito with Java 8, lambda expressions and Mockito-Java8 add-ons
Some very cool Mockito goodness.
>> Spring Tool Suite 3.7.0 released
On the tail of the Eclipse Mars release last week, the new Spring-specific version of Eclipse – STS – is out. Here are the New and Noteworthy.
>> Mars on Linux
And – are you’re using Eclipse Mars on Linux? I am and I’ve been seeing some weird visual artifacts – this is probably why.
