Ah, you tricked me.  :-)  I saw unfamiliar-looking code, and assumed it 
was something new.  And since reading Java hurts my head (or my pride, 
sometimes I can't tell!), I didn't look any further.  But it was only 
code laid out differently than I'm used to.  Sorry.

The relevant part of the Java sample, when formatted so I can read it 
looks something like this:

|   static final Example closureGenerator(final java.lang.Integer i) {
|     final int[] a = {i};
|     return new Example() {
|       public void reset() {a[0] = 0;}
|       public void next() {
|         java.lang.System.out.println(a[0]++);
|       }
|     };
|   }

Interesting.  When I was using Java, I mostly stayed away from static 
code, and don't think I'd ever noticed that this was possible.  Very 
interesting.  It's too bad about that `final` declaration.  (And thanks 
for the history on that, too.)
