The second edition of Programming in Java confirms to Java Standard Edition 7, the latest release since Oracle took over Sun Microsystems. It is significant in the sense that the last update was six years back and this major release comes bundled with plenty of enhancements which were overdue. To list a few noticeable enhancements, Java 7 includes support for strings in switch statements, try-with-resources statement, improved multi-catch, binary numeric literals, numeric literals with underscores, new APIs in NIO like Path and Files, automatic resource management, and much more. The second edition presents all these new topics with suitable examples. This second edition is not just about the enhancements introduced in Java 7; practically every chapter has been revisited to refine the text as much as possible with new example codes and greater topical coverage.
