    Spring Framework

    Immutable references are a great help in avoiding nasty bugs. Interestingly, using the final keyword is not widespread, even in widely used projects. For example, Spring's GenericBean uses immutable attributes, but neither immutable method parameters nor local variables; slf4j's DefaultLoggingEventBuilder uses none of the three.

  • SLF4J

    Simple Logging Facade for Java

  • Guava

    Google core libraries for Java

    Note that earlier, developers created such classes inside the project. Nowadays, the ecosystem offers Open Source libraries such as Apache Commons Lang or Guava. Don't reinvent the wheel!
