Written for the working Java developer, Joshua Bloch's Effective Java Programming Language Guide provides a truly useful set of over 50 best practices and tips for writing better Java code. With plenty of advice from an indisputable expert in the field, this title is sure to be an indispensable resource for anyone who wants to get more out of their code.
As a veteran developer at Sun, the author shares his considerable insight into the design choices made over the years in Sun's own Java libraries (which the author acknowledges haven't always been perfect). Based on his experience working with Sun's best minds, the author provides a compilation of 57 tips for better Java code organized by category. Many of these ideas will let you write more robust classes that better cooperate with built-in Java APIs. Many of the tips make use of software patterns and demonstrate an up-to-the-minute sense of what works best in today's design. Each tip is clearly introduced and explained with code snippets used to demonstrate each programming principle.
Early sections on creating and destroying objects show you ways to make better use of resources, including how to avoid duplicate objects. Next comes an absolutely indispensable guide to implementing "required" methods for custom classes. This material will help you write new classes that cooperate with old ones (with advice on implementing essential requirements like the equals() and hashCode() methods).
The author has a lot to say about class design, whether using inheritance or composition. Tips on designing methods show you how to create understandable, maintainable, and robust classes that can be easily reused by others on your team. Sections on mapping C code (like structures, unions, and enumerated types) onto Java will help C programmers bring their existing skills to Sun's new language. Later sections delve into some general programming tips, like using exceptions effectively. The book closes with advice on using threads and synchronization techniques, plus some worthwhile advice on object serialization.
Whatever your level of Java knowledge, this title can make you a more effective programmer. Wisely written, yet never pompous or doctrinaire, the author has succeeded in packaging some really valuable nuggets of advice into a concise and very accessible guidebook that arguably deserves a place on most any developer's bookshelf. --Richard Dragan
Topics covered:
Best practices and tips for Java
Creating and destroying objects (static factory methods, singletons, avoiding duplicate objects and finalizers)
Required methods for custom classes (overriding equals(), hashCode(), toString(), clone(), and compareTo() properly)
Hints for class and interface design (minimizing class and member accessibility, immutability, composition versus inheritance, interfaces versus abstract classes, preventing subclassing, static versus nonstatic classes)
C constructs in Java (structures, unions, enumerated types, and function pointers in Java)
Tips for designing methods (parameter validation, defensive copies, method signatures, method overloading, zero-length arrays, hints for Javadoc comments)
General programming advice (local variable scope, using Java API libraries, avoiding float and double for exact comparisons, when to avoid strings, string concatenation, interfaces and reflection, avoid native methods, optimizing hints, naming conventions)
Programming with exceptions (checked versus run-time exceptions, standard exceptions, documenting exceptions, failure-capture information, failure atomicity)
Threading and multitasking (synchronization and scheduling hints, thread safety, avoiding thread groups)
Serialization (when to implement Serializable, the readObject(), and readResolve() methods)

坐在那里看了一个小时,看的心浮气躁,完全看不下去任何内容。一个小时过去了连一个章节都没看完。也可能是因为没带笔,直接看感觉特别烦躁。看来看去只感觉,这本书在讲什么,这段话在讲什么?估计我修炼还不到家。我先看看别的吧,提高提高自己技术再来看好了,毕竟这本书评...
评分《Effective Java》是一本什么样的作品,相信也不用我去多阐述了,网上大堆的评价。而刚刚听到这本书的朋友们都应该是被朋友推荐所以才看的。 说回自己的感想,无论这本中文版纸质如何,也只能说对于英语水平不高的朋友们的唯一选择。但也这样说吧,在没得选择的情况下我才会...
评分每种语言都有一个“Effective guide”,对于Java,那就是这本《Effective Java》。 这是一本实用至上的书,78条建议,满满的干货。每一条都说明了为什么最好这样。这些经验,都是对大量的程序项目进行反思时逐渐形成的。对于Java这种极为健全乃至有点过于丰满的语言,这样一本...
评分1. Java程序员分两种,读过<Effective Java>的和没读过的,严格的来说,没读过的不算是Java程序员。 2. 书组织的不错,很适合在碎片时间看上一两条,然后再慢慢回味; ...
评分这样一本书本该早就读了,然而最近才看完。看完觉得对于一些编程规则深层的原理有了一些认识。之前我只是知道这些口口相传的规则,却不知道为什么,在这本书中找到了一些答案。书中涉及到了java编程方方面面的规则,包括类、接口、创建对象、类中的函数、函数的参数、异常、并...
Java在进步!
评分字字珠玑,读过之后顿时觉得自己的程序千疮百孔,每一页都有巧妙无比但又实用的技巧与方法。必定要反复过目的经典
