idea of improving java language

These look interesting, worth to take a look:

1) Auto null checking: http://www.jroller.com[..]ebourne?entry=adding_auto_null_checks_to
I don't think this is a good idea as I don't think there is a way can handle default object reference more generic then NULL. However, I would like to have a way to customize NULL behaviour (or default NULL object). Say, for String, I will think empty string ("") is same as NULL. Thus, I would like to have define something like:

public final class Strinig {
    null {
        return "";
    }
    // the rest of string implementation
}

Then the default reference of String, rather than point to NULL, now it point to an empty String.

2) Add closure to Java: http://www.jroller.com[..]ebourne?entry=adding_closures_to_java_or
Not much comment, it is something nice to have but I don't think really add a lot of value, just like java5 foreach loop.

3) Auto casting: http://jroller.com[..]lebourne?entry=adding_auto_casts_to_java
I guess generic already does this?

Of course, there are still some other problem on some people's mind, like:
http://www.onlamp.com/lpt/a/3691
http://nice.sourceforge.net/safety.html

On the other hand, somebody don't like to change java language as it probably make your code less portable. http://www.eclipsezone.com/eclipse/forums/t54318.html

4) Some idea of useful util language - http://closingbraces.net/2007/03/05/strangelets/

5) API for adding feature - http://www.theserverside.com[..]s?track=NL-461&ad=636686&thread_id=49035

comment of final

I personally like to declare everything in final and immulatable so that it give me feel it more safe (e.g.: variable won't be replace with other value unexpected; method won't be override unexpected). The following is some discussion, see if you interested.

http://tundra-programming.blogspot.com[..]/2005/06/how-often-do-you-use-final.html
http://bordet.blogspot.com[..]rd-particular-in-javautilconcurrent.html

Here is a few update that against using final, mainly against using final class but not final method and variable:

problem of java logging at shared VM

There is a problem of logging if you run multiple web application at single JVM, you can take a look here to learn more about this.

http://www.indicthreads.com[..]ging_java_logmanager_shared_hosting.html

In our own expeerience, logging is not the major problem, it is easy to write a logging library. The main problem is updating individual application instance without affecting the other application instance. Finally we run individual tomcat for every application we host, which spend a lot more memory :-(

security of csharp and java

For me it is a security features overview of java and .net more than a
comparison. Useful resource!

http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/au/1370

Overall, I believe C# provides greater expressiveness and is more suited to writing performance-critical code than Java, while sharing Java's elegance and simplicity, which makes both much more appealing than C++.
