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)
Joshua Bloch is chief Java architect at Google and a Jolt Award winner. He was previously a distinguished engineer at Sun Microsystems and a senior systems designer at Transarc. Bloch led the design and implementation of numerous Java platform features, including JDK 5.0 language enhancements and the award-winning Java Collections Framework. He coauthored Java™ Puzzlers (Addison-Wesley, 2005) and Java™ Concurrency in Practice (Addison-Wesley, 2006).
就内容来说还是相当不错的,翻译也挺好的不会有拗口的感觉.纸质有很多人抱怨过了我就不重复说了.不过对阅读不影响,反正是学里面的东西又不是冲着纸去的.不过话说回来有点小贵啊
評分很早就读过,当时就知道这本书很好,可惜当时功力尚浅,没什么收获。但近日再读时,确实很有收获,可以说此书虽不是深入骨髓,但也算入木三分。新手勿动!
評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...

評分书是好书,但是翻译简直不堪卒读,有些地方我估计译者可能自己现在都看不懂。英语水平可以的话还是建议和英文版对比着读,我对比的时候就发现几个容易让读者迷惑的地方。比如在第 37 条的最后一段: 原文是: “In a sense, this item is the inverse of Item 19, which says,...
後麵兩百頁開始用瀏覽的方式閱讀,並且略過瞭枚舉和聲明式的部分以及部分泛型的內容。
评分看完第9部分Exception,之後的以後用到再看
评分很經典的實例代碼,但序列化那章好難,再找中文版的看一下
评分同為Effective XXX,但這本書比《Effective C++》要好一個檔次。本書介紹的許多經驗和方法不僅針對Java程序員,C++,C#程序員同樣可以獲益,值得每一位程序員閱讀!
评分很有誠意的一本書,適用於中級 Java 用戶,算是 JLS 和設計模式的融閤。不喜歡之一是這本書可以再精簡一些;二是書中提到的很多問題更多是 Java 語言本身的,在後來的語言裏已經被考慮到瞭,所以讀起來很是雞肋
