I thought I'd take a look at IBM's Java 8 beta multitenancy support. This is a mechanism for sharing runtime resources across Java virtual machine instances. See developerWorks' "Introduction to Java multitenancy."
I installed ibm-java-sdk-ea-8.0-0.0-x86_64-archive3.bin on Linux using a CentOS-6.4-x86_64-LiveCD.iso based host.
This post re-implements the "did you mean..?" spell checker from an earlier post using the new Stream type in Java 8.
The JDK 8 Developer Preview came out recently so I thought I would take a look at the API enhancements. This post demonstrates how refactoring to utilize the new types can change code.
This post refers to JDK build 1.8.0-ea-b106. IntelliJ IDEA has good Java 8 syntax support.
Java 8 introduces the concept of default methods to interfaces and this post looks at the cost of adding state to them.
This information pertains to the pre-release version of Java 8 mentioned in a previous post.
Update: Java 8 has been released and I've implemented a library with a more elegant approach to exception handling than the one described in this post: details + downloads; source code; blog posts.
This post looks at the effect of lambdas on checked exception handling.
This code uses a pre-release Java 8 build. See the previous post for more.
Pre-release builds of Java 8 with lambda support are available for download. This post looks at lambda-8-b50-linux-x64-26_jul_2012.tar.gz.
