In this sense, Java is already the next Cobol. I usually ask one or two questions about class loading in interviews (of senior Java devs), the younger ones are frequently stumbling upon these, and they don't even understand why I'm asking this. Good old Tomcat days, when you could run out of PermGenSpace if you weren't careful :) Good news is, Oracle extended extended extended support for Java 8 will not last forever, and eventually - if you work in a regulated industry - the company WILL have to pull the trigger. On the other hand, "where there is muck, there is brass", so a little bit of legacy can be beneficial for some. |
