Java Class Design

• Implement encapsulation
• Implement inheritance including visibility modifiers and composition
• Implement polymorphism
• Override hashCode, equals, and toString methods from Object class
• Create and use singleton classes and immutable classes
• Develop code that uses static keyword on initialize blocks, variables, methods, and classes

Advanced Java Class Design

• Develop code that uses abstract classes and methods
• Develop code that uses final keyword
• Create inner classes including static inner class, local class, nested class, and anonymous inner class
• Use enumerated types including methods, and constructors in an enum type
• Develop code that declares, implements and/or extends interfaces and use the @Override annotation.
• Create and use Lambda expressions

Generics and Collections

• Create and use a generic class
• Create and use ArrayList, TreeSet, TreeMap, and ArrayDeque objects
• Use java.util.Comparator and java.lang.Comparable interfaces
• Collections Streams and Filters
• Iterate using forEach methods of Stream and List
• Describe Stream interface and Stream pipeline
• Filter a collection by using lambda expressions
• Use method references with Streams

Lambda Built-in Functional Interfaces

• Use the built-in interfaces included in the java.util.function package such as Predicate, Consumer, Function, and Supplier
• Develop code that uses primitive versions of functional interfaces
• Develop code that uses binary versions of functional interfaces
• Develop code that uses the UnaryOperator interface

Java Stream API

• Develop code to extract data from an object using peek() and map() methods including primitive versions of the map() method
• Search for data by using search methods of the Stream classes including findFirst, findAny, anyMatch, allMatch, noneMatch
• Develop code that uses the Optional class
• Develop code that uses Stream data methods and calculation methods
• Sort a collection using Stream API
• Save results to a collection using the collect method and group/partition data using the Collectors class
• Use of merge() and flatMap() methods of the Stream API

Exceptions and Assertions

• Use try-catch and throw statements
• Use catch, multi-catch, and finally clauses
• Use Autoclose resources with a try-with-resources statement
• Create custom exceptions and Auto-closeable resources
• Test invariants by using assertions

Use Java SE 8 Date/Time API

• Create and manage date-based and time-based events including a combination of date and time into a single object using LocalDate, LocalTime, LocalDateTime, Instant, Period, and Duration
• Work with dates and times across timezones and manage changes resulting from daylight savings including Format date and times values
• Define and create and manage date-based and time-based events using Instant, Period, Duration, and TemporalUnit

Java I/O Fundamentals

• Read and write data from the console
• Use BufferedReader, BufferedWriter, File, FileReader, FileWriter, FileInputStream, FileOutputStream, ObjectOutputStream, ObjectInputStream, and PrintWriter in the java.io package.

Java File I/O (NIO.2)

• Use Path interface to operate on file and directory paths
• Use File class to check, read, delete, copy, move, manage metadata of a file or directory
• Use Stream API with NIO.2

Java Concurrency

• Create worker threads using Runnable, Callable and use an ExecutorService to concurrently execute tasks
• Identify potential threading problems among deadlock, starvation, livelock, and race conditions
• Use synchronized keyword and java.util.concurrent.atomic package to control the order of thread execution
• Use java.util.concurrent collections and classes including CyclicBarrier and CopyOnWriteArrayList
• Use parallel Fork/Join Framework
• Use parallel Streams including reduction, decomposition, merging processes, pipelines and performance.

Building Database Applications with JDBC

• Describe the interfaces that make up the core of the JDBC API including the Driver, Connection, Statement, and ResultSet interfaces and their relationship to provider implementations
• Identify the components required to connect to a database using the DriverManager class including the JDBC URL
• Submit queries and read results from the database including creating statements, returning result sets, iterating through the results, and properly closing result sets, statements, and connections

Localization

• Describe the advantages of localizing an application
• Read and set the locale by using the Locale object
• Create and read a Properties file
• Build a resource bundle for each locale and load a resource bundle in an application
