This Advanced Java Training Course dives into topics that most professional Java developers will find invaluable.

The course is divided into 6 sections:

1 - Collections : sorting lists and an in depth look at ArrayLists, LinkedLists, HashMaps and LinkedHashMaps.

2 – Logging: How to get the most from your logging with Log4J, JUL (Java Util Logging), and Commons Logging.

3 - Generics: How to use generics, creating our own generic classes and methods, dealing with warning messages. We also explain the complexities of the advanced generics syntax that you see in the Javadocs.

4 – Lambda Functions: how functional programming is possible in Java 8, including functional interfaces and streams.

5 – Threading: creating multi threaded applications, and underestanding the risks of threading. Including deadlocks, thread safety, and Java 5 concurrency features

6 – Memory: we go deep into how memory works in Java - what's really happening in your programs. Including garbage collection, finding memory leaks, monitoring application performance, and tuning the JVM.

The course is written with Java 8, although all chapters except section 4 can be studied using Java 7 if preferred.

This course is aimed at Java developers with some experience working on Java projects.

Newer programmers will be able to follow the course as long as they have already learned the basics of java programming. We recommend you take Virtual Pair Programmers’ Java Fundamentals Course before starting Java : Advanced Topics.

The course is ideal for developers working with frameworks like Spring and Hibernate. There are a number of example spring and hibernate projects, taken from Virtual Pair Programmers’ other courses, which feature in this course, although you do not need any prior knowledge of Spring or Hibernate to take this course.

If you’re still a relatively novice java programmer, then don’t worry – you’ll be able to follow this course as long as you have learned the basics before you start – we recommend you take Virtual Pair Programmers’ Java Fundamentals Course – certainly that covers all the pre-requisites for this course.
