Hi,
Here are some patches that migrate some code to use more up to date language features. I will create a bug later on after feedback.
This is motivated from Brian's patches to lang tools.
I focused just on java.util, minus the concurrent packages, and i used the IDE to assist in the code migration. It's easy to pick off other packages over time. This makes for more of a low-brow effort [*], perfect when one has a cold.
Use <> syntax:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~psandoz/tl/j.u.diamond/webrev/
Replace for with for-each
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~psandoz/tl/j.u.foreach/webrev/
Replace while with for-each
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~psandoz/tl/j.u.foreach-while/webrev/
Compress catches
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~psandoz/tl/j.u.catch/webrev/
Use switch for strings; not sure this one is worth it
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~psandoz/tl/j.u.swtich/webrev/
I ran all the j.u. tests locally and there were no regressions. Yet to run a JPRT job.
Paul.
[*] although one needs to be vigilant since sometimes the IDE can refactor incorrectly and sometimes code is arranged in a certain way for a reason (which one reason for leaving j.u.concurrent packages alone for now).
