The Usage of the keyword of 'final' about iosched

[eveliotc]

In Java you declare a variable as final when you want to assign its value only once, attempting to reassign it will throw an exception at compile time. You may have noticed constants have this modifier, as per local variables/parameters means "I won't modify this variable reference/value during the flow of this method", normally you don't need it and is up to the code style.

Yes, the value/reference of this variable declared as 'final' can't be changed or modified during the flow of this method. But what I wonder is, you know exactly, during the flow of this method, the Context and the boolean are not modified either. So, what the difference is here if the 'final's are erased?
Indeed, if there is a local inner class defined inside the method, in which parameters are used or changed, the 'final' is necessary. But there is no local inner class inside this method, so I figure 'final's here are unnecessary, what do you think?

@LittlePanpc yep, in that particular snippet is unnecessary
