• Classworking toolkit: Reflecting generics by Dennis M. Sosnoski   - [Clicks: 36]
  Java 5 extended the Java language type system to support parameterized types for classes, methods, and values. Parameterized types provide important compile-time advantages by enforcing proper type usage and eliminating casts from source code. Beyond these compile-time benefits, the type information can also be useful for classworking tools manipulating Java code. In this article, JiBX lead developer Dennis Sosnoski looks at how to use reflection to dig beneath the surface of parameterized types and reveal the full glory of Java 5 application data structures.

• Generics in J2SE 5.0 by Budi Kurniawan   - [Clicks: 54]
  This article teaches you to use and write generic types. It starts with the section "Life without Generics," which reminds us what we missed in earlier versions of JDKs. Then, it presents some examples of generic types. After the discussions of the syntax and the use of generic types with bounds, this article concludes with a section that explains how to write generic types.

• Generics by John Zukowski   - [Clicks: 23]
  The 5.0 release of J2SE includes the first set of significant language-level changes to the Java platform in some time. In addition to new constructs for things such as the enhance for loop and variable argument lists, J2SE 5.0 provides compile-time type safety with the Java Collections framework through generics in accordance with JSR-14: Add Generic Types To The Java Programming Language.

• Java theory and practice: Generics gotchas by Brian Goetz   - [Clicks: 35]
  Generic types, added in JDK 5.0, are a significant enhancement to type safety in the Java language. However, some aspects of generics may seem confusing, or even downright bizarre, to first-time users. In this month's Java theory and practice, Brian Goetz examines the common pitfalls that ensnare first-time users of generics.
