Thanks, I have realized that now. It is not possible to get it turned
off by not using it as it can pop up everywhere. So I rest my "-1" and
are now a "+0" on this issue :)
The places where it makes the code easier to read (IMO) are when you
use it intentionally and might look like this:
static public Integer SOME_CONSTANT = 5;
But really, I think it a pretty minor issue.
Not that big win for me with a big monitor :)
I wasn't aware of the speed enhancement of Integer.valueOf(int) and
that is pretty nice as long as we are sure those particular Integers
are immutable.
Integer is immutable. Autoboxing of ints probably uses
Integer.valueOf(int).
