Hi to everyone. Sorry if this question has been asked before...
Is something like the code below legal? if yes, which are the
implications of making the variable i final?

for(final int i = 0; i < something; ++i) {
 new AnonymousInnerClass() {
   public void doSomething() {
     ...use i in some very creative way...
   }
 };
}

This code appears to work for me, but actually I would have expected
it to be in error since the loop might assign a new value to i on each
iteration, and the final keyword should forbid that. Am I missing
something? Will this code eventually make the computer explode? :)

Thanks for any insight on this...

cheers
