JDK 7: Strings in Switch Statements

Thursday November 5, 2009

Joe Darcy has written an interesting blog post on the implementation of strings in switch statements, one of the changes accepted for inclusion in JDK 7 from Project Coin. The post highlights the steps he went through to modify the language.

If you like playing with the early access releases for JDK 7 you'll soon be able to use strings in switch statements in the milestone 5 release.
