Hidden Features of Java

Answer 1

As of Java 1.5, Java now has a much cleaner syntax for writing functions of variable arity. So, instead of just passing an array, now you can do the following

public void foo(String... bars) {
   for (String bar: bars)
      System.out.println(bar);
}

bars is automatically converted to array of the specified type. Not a huge win, but a win nonetheless.
