The reason is, when the method local class instance is created, all the method local variables it refers to are actually copied into it by the compiler. That is why only final variables can be accessed. A final variable or reference is immutable, so it stays in sync with its copy within the method local object.
Were it not so, the original value / reference could be changed after the creation of the method local class, giving way to confusing behaviour and subtle bugs.
As I see it, accessing local variables from method-local-classes (e.g. Anonymous class) is a risky thing. It is allowed by the compiler, but it requires good understanding of what is going on.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
