It seems to me that (even though its sometimes hard to read) the
Java Language Spec has everything you need to know in the topics that it covers.
The topics that do not seem to be included:
- Assertions
- Garbage Collection
- Fundimental classes in Java.lang
- The collections framework
I think some of these should maybe be there.
Do you agree that except on the topics above the JLS is the definitive source? (i.e. you only need to study it)
PS. If there is a newer version than the:
Java Language Specification
Second Edition
April, 2000
plEAse let me know.
Thanks.
