PS. This post was not only to tease philfrej but also to provide the reference if anyone wanted to read more from the book.
Seems crazy in a way, but of course it’s better to catch potential errors as soon as possible, and to know when you are doing something wrong… or not to be allowed to do something if it is wrong. It would be even better if they made this feedback come straight from the compiler, but I’m quite grateful for the fail fast approach of Substance.
Mickelucas, how did you do that? :o ???
My Safari account is through the public library system, and many of the books in the full version are just not available. That Horstmann book won’t come up via searches on Horstmann nor on Core Java.
And if I try to Google in, I’m put in “Preview” mode, and am cut off mid page 794.
I don’t mean to hijack the thread…
