Java 8 has several solutions to support evolution of interfaces. In the last post I explained about one such solution, default methods. Today I’ll be explaining another solution: static methods in Interfaces.
So far I have discussed some of the “code changers” brought about by Java 8 such as lambda-expressions, variable scope changes, and method references. Today I will be explaining another cool feature in Java 8 called default methods.
Hi there!
If you are already familiar with Java and if you do not have much time to spare on reading, the stuff I write about in my blog might interest you.You are more than welcome to point out any mistakes that I have made in my posts, because after all I am a newbie…

You probably are aware of JavaScript in terms of scripting web browsers. The JavaScript engines have access to the HTML document object model…
In the previous post, I discussed what lambda-expressions are. In this post, I will explain the concept of method references brought about in Java 8.
Sometimes there is already a method that you’d like to pass on to some other code. Of course, you could…
In a previous post, I have described what a functional interface is. In the same post, I explained that lambda-expressions can be used at any place a functional interface is used and gave an example for doing so.
In today’s post I will discuss one Concurrency Utility Enhancement provided by Java 8.
Java 8 includes a class called LongAdder in java.util.concurrent.atomic package to yet again support atomic operations on a…
