After 8: Sweet New Features in the JDK

Simon Ritter passa da Torino per il suo Italian JUG Tour.

In this session we’ll take a look at the rapid evolution of the Java platform with the introduction of new features in each of the recent releases:

  • JDK 9: Java Platform Module System
  • JDK10: Local variable type inference
  • JDK 11: JDK Flight Recorder
  • JDK 12: Switch expressions
  • JDK 13: Text blocks
  • JDK 14: Records and pattern matching

What might future JDKs include? To answer that question, we’ll explore some of the longer-term plans for Java, like project Amber, Loom and Valhalla.
