| Refactoring to Eclipse Collections: Making Your Java Streams Leaner, Meaner, and Cleaner |
| We are happy to announce that Don Raab will be our special guest for this month's meeting. |
| Looking for ways to optimize your Java applications? Want to see tangible memory savings as well as cleaner, more readable code? |
| Eclipse Collections, a drop-in replacement for the Java Collections Framework, will do just that! |
Eclipse Collections has optimized JDK-compatible List, Set and Map implementations with a rich API.
It also adds types not found in the JDK such as Bags, Multimaps and BiMaps.
Eclipse Collections has a full complement of primitive containers, and all collection types have immutable equivalents.
|
| Immutable collections allow for safer, cleaner, mutation free code checked at compile time and without runtime surprises. With the combination of immutable collections and the rich API you can write better functional code in Java. |
| In this session, you will follow a live coding exercise to refactor standard Java code to Eclipse Collections where you will observe the same kind of reduction in boilerplate code and memory savings that you can achieve in your applications. |
