Java - comma operator outside for loop declaration

问题


I know I can use the comma operator like this

for (int i = 1, j = 15; j>10; i++, j--) {
    // do something neat
}

but some articles seem to suggest that the comma operator can be used outside of the for loop declaration, for example

int j = 2, k = 4 ;
int x ;
// Assignment statement with comma operator
x = j + 1, k ;

source: http://www.cs.umd.edu/~clin/MoreJava/ControlFlow/comma.html

or

int x = (expression) ? (i++,2) : 3;

This would be a neat trick for a code obfuscation contest or to confuse my colleagues, but neither of the examples will compile (Java 1.6, Eclipse Juno), the error is "The left-hand side of an assignment must be a variable". I tried looking at the compiler settings to see whether it could be forbidden to prevent bad code, but without luck.

What's wrong? Was the comma operator a part of an older specification which later changed? Are the people that wrote those examples using a different Java setup that allows this?

Some of the tricks which work in C don't work in Java.

This never worked in Java AFAIK.

Its a common mistake to assume Java is just like C or C++ because it is similar. A good portion of coding mistakes on SO are due to people trying to write C++ in Java and getting confused when it doesn't do what they expect.

BTW: I have made the same mistake assuming C++ is just like Java as my knowledge of C++ is not current.


However some tricks which working Java but perhaps not C.

You can use all currency symbols or which there are a few which look at most the same.

e.g.

if( ⁀ ‿ ⁀ == ⁀ ⁔ ⁀ || ¢ + ¢== ₡)

You can use character which are invisible and c couple which reverse the order the rest of the line when printed. ;)

This program compiles and runs and prints all the odd characters you can use in Java identifiers

for (char c‮h = 0; c‮h < Character.MAX_VALUE; c‮h++)
    if (Character.isJavaIdentifierPart(c‮h) && !Character.isJavaIdentifierStart(c‮h))
        System.out.printf("%04x <%s>%n", (int) c‮h, "" + c‮h);

which makes its almost too easy.

15.27. Expression

<...>

Unlike C and C++, the Java programming language has no comma operator.
