Hi everyone,

I'm trying to find out how much people use the "new" features available in java. I would be very thankful, if anyone could participate. (less than one minute required)

In my former projects we neither had the latest java version, nor did we use all the features available. Sometimes i had the feeling, that some of my collegues didn't even know that these features exist. How's your experience?

We once had a project of 8 years old. You could find any pattern and anti-pattern in there, starting from java 1.5. I hope that none will say the same about my codebase in a few years. ๐Ÿ˜‚

I try to follow clean code as much as possible and not overdoing the new features, but only there, where it makes sense.
