But type inference in Java is much older than that. Some sort of it existed even in Java 6, where compilers could infer type parameters of generic constructors! For sure the most famous type inference example is the diamond operator in Java 7. Since the beginning, mere reduction of number of characters used in source code went hand in hand with type inference. But is that its biggest advantage?
