Catching up with Java once again
Its been a long while since I have written any Java code, but as technology progresses there are lot of innovations happening in this space, worth mentioning are
- google-collections - Its Google’s replacement for Java collections. Has lot of datastructure built in, cant wait to write some code that uses them and test it against Java’s collection
- protobuf - Yet another Google’s way to speed up Java. Provided mechanisms to serialize and de-serialze datastructures. It comes prebuilt with code generators so that means that you can now have Java code talk to C++,Python etc.
- Restlet - RESTful framework for Java.
- Play - MVC framework.
Now what I would really love to do is write some app using these technologies and share my experience. Interesting times…
