I wrote "Java Streams are great but it's time for better Java Collections" 2 years ago. The Java language, Java Streams, & @EclipseCollect have all evolved. Java Collections have convenience factories & some implementation updates. Valhalla soon. 🙏 medium.com/javarevisited/jav…

"These go to eleven." 🕚 Major releases ✍️ Website language translations 🏗️ Data Structure Types @EclipseCollect 11.0 is here! Website: eclipse.org/collections/ Source: github.com/eclipse/eclipse-c… Katas: github.com/eclipse/eclipse-c…

I went for a walk Monday. It was cold and quiet outside. A good time to reflect on a long road taken. Ten years ago this December, we started down a path less traveled. Thank you for believing, persisting, teaching and starting us on this journey @motlin 🙏. 1/

Finally, my OSS journey was inspired and motivated by my belief in the mission & vision of @BrianGoetz & the JSR 335 expert group to get lambdas into Java. Thank you for leading & delivering in Java 8 & continuing the mission of improving Java thru Amber, Panama & Valhalla. 🙏 4.

For me, this journey started almost 18 years ago in London. I was a Smalltalk developer who believed he could teach Java developers to learn to love coding as much as I do. I’m thankful for the support of my friend @zakhav along the way. 🙏 3/

Six years ago this December, @itohiro73 would lead us down a new path with @EclipseCollect. @NikhilNanivade would later take the lead and accelerate our journey. Now @sirishapratha is helping pave the path with the 11th major release of the library. Thank you all. 🙏 2/

Major releases since going open source. @EclipseCollect 11.0 ➡️ 2021-11 10.0 ➡️ 2019-07 9.0 ➡️ 2017-09 8.0 ➡️ 2016-09 7.0 ➡️ 2015-12 GS Collections 7.0 ➡️ 2015-10 6.0 ➡️ 2015-02 5.0 ➡️ 2014-03 4.0 ➡️ 2013-09 3.0 ➡️ 2013-03 2.0 ➡️ 2012-08 1.0 ➡️ 2012-01 donraab.medium.com/eclipse-c…

Happy Halloween! 🎃 Trick or treat? Well, today I finished my tech blog for October, so hopefully a treat. It took a lot of work to finish, but hopefully will be worth it for my future self and others in the @EclipseCollect and #Java community. Enjoy!🙏 donraab.medium.com/the-unpar…

Interested in exploring an OSS data structures and algorithms library? @EclipseCollect has many of the data structures I needed when I worked on large distributed caches w/ complex object graphs in Financial Services. Maybe it has something you need. medium.com/oracledevs/ten-re…

If you like @EclipseCollect, you can let us know by starring the GitHub repo. We celebrate 6 years @EclipseFdn in December. It will be 10 years in January since GS Collections was open sourced. We only need 40 more stars for EC to surpass GSC. Thanks! 🙏 github.com/eclipse/eclipse-c…

Thinking about blogging about collection types available in @EclipseCollect but not found in the JDK today. I love mind maps for organizing my thoughts so I powered up @astah_en and started visualizing. Will focus the blog on lesser known HashingStrategy & MultiReader types.
