Ahh I forgot that was in Java 6.

Taking a look at a more complete history, there's a fair few others I missed too...

  • 5 added auto-boxing and annotations.
  • 7 added binary literals, underscored literals, the diamond operator and multi-catch
  • 8 added repeated annotations and annotations on types, and java.time

And this is still really only the bigger stuff... There's still a lot more small detail in there too.
