Ah OK, a term a wasn't familiar with. Thanks for the info. > Furthermore, it's a constant variable, so its visibility is different > that it would be without 'final'.

Constant variables can be initialized at compile time, and so so their visibility is compile time and later. An access to a constant variable wouldn't cause a class to initialize, whereas an access to my public final char[] would cause the whole class to initialize. > All "thread-safe immutable" means is immutable and not seen by > another thread until after the immutability is assured by a memory > barrier. > Yes, but I think it's causing confusion, as Arne and possibly Joerg are assuming that immutable means something more like the plain English meaning of that word, and they're not taking into account the special meaning applied by the JLS. I had to modify my terminology to be more clear.
