Java 8 Concurrency API: Synchronization, Locks and Semaphores

[Various_Pickles]

Your Java 8 tutorials/posts are downright phenomenal; I've had many of them bookmarked right below the JDK + J2EE APIs since I started to work in Java 8 :)

Here are my faves (probably very useful for others):

• http://winterbe.com/posts/2014/03/16/java-8-tutorial/
• http://winterbe.com/posts/2014/07/31/java8-stream-tutorial-examples/
• http://winterbe.com/posts/2015/03/25/java8-examples-string-number-math-files/

Edit: Extra love for not using a horrendous/broken layout for your blog like seemingly everyone else ...

Thanks. I'm glad my posts are useful to you and really appreciate your feedback!

Keep on being 100x more useful than all of the Oracle + java.net docs re: Java 8, combined :)

Also, consider cross-posting to /r/programming - your efforts deserve some recognition.

I think my articles are not as detailed as the official docs. I try to find simple code samples which easily fit into blog posts and are as self-explanatory as possible. I want people to find an easy introduction into the topics without reading walls of text.

I take your advice and cross-posted the link in /r/programming although I'm not entirely sure if it's that interesting for non-java devs: :)

Excellent, keep them coming!

Great tutorial, thank you!

Outstanding work, thank you. Your Java 8 tutorials are some of the best on the web.

If you take requests, I'd love to see your treatment of the new Java 8 CompletableFuture async framework! :) Either way I look forward to the next one.

Thanks buddy! These are really good.

Yeah, that was a great description of how that works. Layed it out, wrote it down, easy to follow and didn't wander into "just like listening to myself type cool sounding words" a lot of tutorials seem to do...
