Our latest post on the debate around including locking and unlocking of resources in the try-with-resources (TWR) construct

[Martijn Verburg]

Hi all,

Apologies for the lack of posts lately! Ben and I were speaking at
several conferences in Canada and the US and have only just gotten
back a couple of days ago.

There has been a really interesting discussion on the project-coin
mailing list about including locking/unlocking support for the TWR
construct. You can read all about it in our latest blog post at:

Remember, Oracle is looking for feedback on Java 7 by the 4th of April
before they go into the cycle of locking down the API. So please let
us know if we can help you get started with any of your Java 7
experiments.

Cheers,
Martijn
