Thank you. These both look great. And both cover up to Java 17. The complete reference looks like it's got a new edition due to be published in March so I might get 'in a nutshell' for now, and then the new version of the complete reference when it's out if I feel like I still want more :-D Simon

Happy New Year to you, as well, Nelek! Will Rogers never met me.

Thanks! I'm easing into it ... but I'm getting there. "I have no idea what I did, but I'm taking full credit for it." - ThisOldTony "Common sense is so rare these days, it should be classified as a super power" - Random T-shirt AntiTwitter: @DalekDave is now a follower!

Maybe has :bob: still hangover? M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

The next year they installed a very tall flag pole a few meters in front of their door or on the apex of the roof? And have never flown a flag on it?

Perhaps - but this could be a challenge :java:

Quote: you have no logical answers to the points i raised do you ? I'll answer any logical question I see. Arguing to use a word in a way not used by the rest of the speakers of that language is not really logical, now is it? You put forward an argument for why the rest of the world is wrong, I remain unconvinced that you are correct and the rest of the world is wrong. You need to provide some evidence for why you think the rest of the world is wrong. PS. Aren't you even just a little bit concerned that no on on earth shares your definition of the word "specimen"? I know if I was arguing for something, I'd rethink my position if the rest of the world unanimously disagreed with me. After all, you haven't found anyone who agrees with your definition of "specimen". You should be very concerned.

After lengthy meetings, I often see people doing sprints to the coffee machine, to be first in line. Religious freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make five.

MS architects were too narrow mind when they allow so much in Win. 1. Any app can intercept keyb focus. WHY?? I'm busy w Word, I don't give a hell IE cannot connect internet! But no, idiotic message will appear above the word and annoy me. 2. Any app can intercept DLL calls. THANK YOU for this Mars-size hole, MS smarties!! 3. Global keyb shortcuts. Again, nobody use 'em! Who the hell will remember all those Ctrl+Alt+FCKMETWICE, especially when they can be THE SAME in different app?? MS are such a clowns!

why would you not want a system to run efficiently? Why would I want higher power consumption, wasting cpu cycles to do something that can be done much faster and using less power?
