How Many People Have to Die leakages

Recently I've been warned that my sidebar in Chapter 4, Ever Changing Targets talks about events that are completely ununderstandable for international readers. That made me write a short essay about leakages of cultural contexts and the similarities with the API Design.

Exceptions in API

Casper Bang asked following question about exceptions in API after reading the TheAPIBook:

I was curious as to know how come, in a book strictly about API design in Java, you do not mention exceptions (particular checked exceptions) and the role they play in documenting assertions vs. hampering versionability. Did you simply think this to be too controversial an issue I wonder?

Good question! Inspiring. Here are my current answers: exceptions in API.

Have You Ever Wondered?

Many people want to know, before they start to read a book, whether it can help them solve some problems they have faced. That is very likely reason why many books start with have you ever wondered sections. The Practical API Design book does not contain such section itself, however that in no way means that there it is not helping to solve problems! You can bet that there is a lot of useful advices! The book is a lab journal describing adventures of NetBeans project and as such, it is almost completely stuffed with problem solutions. Here is short online version of Have You Ever Wondered to demonstrate that. Visit the page and check yourself what problems can TheAPIBook solve for you!

Request/Response Pattern Revisited

Here is few additional thoughts about Request/Response which did not make it into TheAPIBook's explanation of Request/Response pattern.
