Using Google's Protocol Buffers With Java - DZone Java
Effective Java, Third Edition was recently released, and I have been interested in identifying the updates to this classic Java development book, whose last edition only covered through Java 6. There are obviously completely new items in this edition that are closely related to Java 7, Java 8, and Java 9 such as Items 42 through 48 in Chapter 7 ("Lambdas and Streams"), Item 9 ("Prefer try-with-resources to try-finally"), and Item 55 ("Return optionals judiciously"). I was (very slightly) surprised to realize that the third edition of Effective Java had a new item not specifically driven by the new versions of Java, but that was instead was driven by developments in the software development world independent of the versions of Java. That item, Item 85 ("Prefer alternatives to Java Serialization") is what motivated me to write this introductory post on using Google's Protocol Buffers with Java.
