http://blog.grovehillsoftware.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 28, 2009. Handy But Hidden: Collections.newSetFromMap(). I was reminded again today of how much the core Java libraries have grown over the years. It can be really hard to keep track of all the nice little features that get added in each release. Today, I was wishing that there was a ConcurrentHashSet class or some other HashSet-style concurrent collection. Before implementing something myself, I did some searching on Google and found a nice way. Posted by Matt Passell. Traditional da...

Saturday, June 27, 2009. Embedded Groovy as an Application Extension Language.

The first camping trip was August of 2006 and Evenewra was pregnant. And now she's an adorable toddler:.
