Autoboxing is a great feature provided by JAVA5 but using it blindly may result in very subtle problem which will take hours and hours to
debug and find. to read more see the link What is the problem while using...]]> Tue, 01 Mar 2011 07:52:44 -0500 Thu, 24 Feb 2011 23:12:02 -0500 Tue, 01 Mar 2011 07:52:44 -0500 Mar 1, 2011 javabuddy 2 http://www.theserverside.com/discussions/thread.tss?thread_id=41731 I guess if you want to be safe with autoboxed primitives in containers, and you don't like checking for nulls, you should use a container that doesn't permit null values... Hashtable is one such, although it has synchronisation overheads -...]]> Wed, 22 Nov 2006 09:29:17 -0500 Wed, 22 Nov 2006 09:29:17 -0500 Wed, 22 Nov 2006 09:29:17 -0500 Nov 22, 2006 Keith Moore 0 http://www.theserverside.com/discussions/thread.tss?thread_id=41731 Wed, 06 Sep 2006 04:54:02 -0400 Wed, 06 Sep 2006 04:54:02 -0400 Wed, 06 Sep 2006 04:54:02 -0400 Sep 6, 2006 Dave Lorde 1 http://www.theserverside.com/discussions/thread.tss?thread_id=41731 Wed, 06 Sep 2006 01:10:56 -0400 Wed, 06 Sep 2006 01:10:56 -0400 Wed, 06 Sep 2006 01:10:56 -0400 Sep 6, 2006 Sharique Abdullah 0 http://www.theserverside.com/discussions/thread.tss?thread_id=41731 Ian,

I must say I don't agree with you. It is natural to get a NPE there, since you are using a variable of a non-primitive type, which is null. You cannot expect Java to make asumptions about what the value of that variable should...]]> Thu, 17 Aug 2006 19:38:15 -0400 Thu, 17 Aug 2006 19:38:15 -0400 Thu, 17 Aug 2006 19:38:15 -0400 Aug 17, 2006 Ian Hlavats 1 http://www.theserverside.com/discussions/thread.tss?thread_id=41731 Wed, 16 Aug 2006 01:22:06 -0400 Wed, 16 Aug 2006 01:22:06 -0400 Wed, 16 Aug 2006 01:22:06 -0400 Aug 16, 2006 Bogdan Mocanu 2 http://www.theserverside.com/discussions/thread.tss?thread_id=41731 Tue, 15 Aug 2006 20:58:35 -0400 Tue, 15 Aug 2006 20:58:35 -0400 Tue, 15 Aug 2006 20:58:35 -0400 Aug 15, 2006 Ian Hlavats 3 http://www.theserverside.com/discussions/thread.tss?thread_id=41731 Tue, 15 Aug 2006 12:43:42 -0400 Tue, 15 Aug 2006 12:43:42 -0400 Tue, 15 Aug 2006 12:43:42 -0400 Aug 15, 2006 Michael Tholkes 0 http://www.theserverside.com/discussions/thread.tss?thread_id=41731 http://rifers.org/blogs/gbevin/2004/3/11/the_dangers_of_auto_unboxing]]> Fri, 11 Aug 2006 13:43:34 -0400 Fri, 11 Aug 2006 13:43:34 -0400 Fri, 11 Aug 2006 13:43:34 -0400 Aug 11, 2006 gbevin 1 http://www.theserverside.com/discussions/thread.tss?thread_id=41731 Burt Beckwith's blog enlightening.
