Hello all:
I'm teaching myself Java (but for now I'm using one of the Teach Yourself Java 7 books). I'm currently learning about channels and sockets and I'm reading about blocking an nonblocking methods. The book discusses a three steps to set up nonblocking communication, and because technology is ever evolving, I was wondering if the process is the same in Java 8, or if it's been "simplified".

As far as I know there are little or no changes to how Sockets or the NIO SocketChannel etc work from Java 7 to Java 8.
