Java code hanging in JDeveloper while establishing a T3 connection over VPN with ProxyIt's not often that I work on my company's VPN but on this occasion I did. One of the things that I've forgotten about was how proxies are automatically configured when the Cisco AnyConnect VPN Client establishes the VPN connection.

JDeveloper 11g and 12c do not support new Java 7 Syntax: Try With ResourcesNow that Java 8 has been released, you would think that the IDE that comes from the makers of Java would support all of the language syntax that dates back to the Java 7 days, but alas it does not. I tried both JDeveloper 11g (11.1.2.0.0) and 12c (12.1.2.0.0) and neither appear to support the try-with-resources syntax that was introduced as a part of JDK 7. However, compiling the code has no problems, both IDEs are able to compile source code that is using this new syntax.
