Errata for OCP: Oracle Certified Professional Java SE 8 Programmer II Study Guide

[Yevhenii Tymoshenko]

Hi,

I think I found some minor typos.

p. 217 Table 5.10 ofLocalized methods. In line ofLocalizedDateTime need print three times “Legal show whole object”

p. 315 DateTimeParseException in a third sentence, but need ParseException. DateTimeParseException is a RuntimeException.

p. 495 In Exam Essentials second sentence “Paths.getPath()” but need “Paths.get()”

p. 531 On the pre-last sentence. “It returns boolean” but need – “It returns true”

Thanks.

Typo. This is on page 271 . The table is correct thought. You can't call f.format(localDate) or f.format(localTime) with a date/time formatter because not enough information is supplied. Suppose I asked you to type Sept 1, 2016 and include the month, date, year, hour and minute. You'd have a problem because you don't know what hour and minute to use.

Yes. This is in the errata. We messed this up consistently through the chapter so we wrote it once with the chapter number rather than for each page.

Correct. I've added this to the errata and credited you. Good catch.

I'm not sure what the problem is you are trying to report. true is a boolean.

About page 271, I am sorry. It was my mistake.
p. 531 On the pre-last sentence. “It returns boolean” but need – “It returns true”.
“It returns a boolean if the cursor is pointing to a row with data “. I mean it is not precisely. If it returns boolean, it means can be false or true. At this point all time return true.

Which is true. We weren't trying for that level of precision with that statement.
