19. @jeanneboyarsky Before Now 19
20. @jeanneboyarsky Before Now 20
21. @jeanneboyarsky Before Now Releases every Varies 6 months (or 3 years LTS) Releases are Feature driven Date driven Oracle/OpenJDK Communications
22. @jeanneboyarsky Patches Ask vendor a question What is Long Term Support? Oracle defined as 3 years. Other vendors (mostly) following definition.
23. @jeanneboyarsky More time to code while I wait for the next train! 23
24. @jeanneboyarsky Oracle/OpenJDK Arrivals Train Schedule Java Release Date Long Term Support 9 September 21, 2017 10 March 20, 2018 11 September 25, 2018 24
25. @jeanneboyarsky Oracle Security Patches Departure Schedule Java Public Patches Paid Patches 6 2013 Late 2018 7 2015 2022 8 January 2019 (business) December 2020 (public) 2025 25
26. @jeanneboyarsky Oracle/OpenJDK Security Patches Departure Schedule Java Public patches Paid patches 9 March 2018 n/a 10 September 2018 n/a 11 March 2019 2023-2028 26
27. @jeanneboyarsky Looking at that another way Once Java 12 comes out, what does Oracle issue patches for? Open JDK 12 Oracle Java 11 (Paid) 27
28. @jeanneboyarsky Wait. So what happens next? How long will Java 12 have Oracle patches? Answer: 6 months What is the next LTS version after Java 11? Java 11 + 3*2 = 17 28
29. @jeanneboyarsky A Tale of Two JDKs Java Oracle JDK Open JDK New Version Every 3 years Every 6 months Cost Paid Free Upgrade Options •  Security patch •  Next version •  OpenJDK •  Interim security patch •  Next version 29 Note: Oracle also publishes Open JDK 6 months for dev; not EA
30. @jeanneboyarsky Converged Binaries 30
31. @jeanneboyarsky Found it! 31 Some closed-source parts of the Oracle JDK will be open-sourced •  Flight recorder •  Mission control •  Others
32. @jeanneboyarsky Where did it go? 32 Other closed-source parts will be removed •  Browser Plugin •  Java Web Start •  JavaFX (Lives on as OpenJFX)
33. @jeanneboyarsky FUD quiz #1 There will be a LTS release every 3 years. How long for free updates? 6 months 33
34. @jeanneboyarsky FUD quiz #2 Which of these require a paid license to Oracle? •  Open JDK 11 •  Oracle JDK 11 Oracle JDK 11 34
35. @jeanneboyarsky FUD quiz #3 How long can Oracle JDK 8 be used in Prod for free? Forever (but no security patches) 35
36. @jeanneboyarsky FUD quiz #4 How long will Oracle contribute to Open JDK for each release? 6 months 36
37. @jeanneboyarsky FUD quiz #5 How long will Oracle backport updates and security patches? 0 months 37
38. @jeanneboyarsky FUD quiz #6 Is anyone backporting updates and security patches? RedHat 38
39. @jeanneboyarsky FUD quiz #7 Is it enough to pass the TCK (Technology Compatibility Kit) to be Java SE? No. If vendor doesn’t pay Oracle, “Java SE Compatible” 39
40. @jeanneboyarsky Vendor JDKs •  Vulnerability Security Group •  Backporting – non trivial •  Features removed •  What is a bug/security patch/enhancement 40
41. @jeanneboyarsky 41 Java 8 LTS March 2026 Java 11 LTS Sept 2027 Java 13 MTS March 2023 Java 15 MTS March 2023 Java 17 LTS Sept 2030 All others Free 6 months Azul Zulu
42. @jeanneboyarsky 42 Java 8 Free Updates – Adopt OpenJDK Paid support - IBM March 2023+ Java 11 Free updates – Adopt OpenJDK Paid support - IBM Sept 2022+ All others Free updates – Adopt OpenJDK 6 months Adopt OpenJDK + IBM + means support as long as source maintained
43. @jeanneboyarsky 43 RedHat •  Java 8, 9, 10 still available •  Java 8 and 11 supported •  Will maintain OpenJDK after Oracle support ends
44. @jeanneboyarsky 44 Others •  SAP distributes Java 10 + 11 Don’t be sad if your favorite JDK is missing. Just examples!
45. @jeanneboyarsky 45 Mark’s slide from the keynote
46. @jeanneboyarsky QUESTIONS AND BONUS MATERIALS 46
47. @jeanneboyarsky Tip: Aliases alias javac11=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/ jdk-11.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/javac alias java11=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/ jdk-11.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java 47
48. @jeanneboyarsky LOCAL VARIABLE SYNTAX (10/11) 48
49. @jeanneboyarsky String name = "Jeanne”; var name = "Jeanne"; List list = List.of(1, 2, 3); var list = List.of(1, 2, 3); •  Syntactical sugar/less boilerplate •  Not immutable (no val) (10) 49
50. @jeanneboyarsky var name = "Jeanne"; String name2 = name; •  Compiled code same with var (10) 50
51. @jeanneboyarsky List<WebElement> headers = thead.findElements(By.tagName("th")); VolunteerDashboardRow headerRow = new VolunteerDashboardRow(headers); vs var headers = thead.findElements(By.tagName("th")); var headerRow = new VolunteerDashboardRow(headers); (10) 51
52. @jeanneboyarsky var csvPath = createAndGetFile(CSV_DATA); try (var csvWriter = Files.newBufferedWriter(csvPath); var csvPrinter = new CSVPrinter(csvWriter, CSVFormat.DEFAULT)); { } (10) 52
53. @jeanneboyarsky Map<Integer, String> productMap1 = new HashMap<Integer, String>(); Map<Integer, String> productMap2 = new HashMap<>(); var productMap3 = new HashMap<Integer, String>(); (10) 53
54. @jeanneboyarsky Where can we use? var name = "Jeanne"; var other = name + 2; var list = List.of(1, 2, 3); for (var num : list) {} (10) 54
55. @jeanneboyarsky Where can’t we use? class Inner { var bad = "abc"; } var noGood; noGood = 4; •  Also instance variables, etc (10) 55
56. @jeanneboyarsky Does this work? var var = "var"; (10) 56
57. @jeanneboyarsky (10) Pros Cons Less typing Loss of information Less redundancy Variable names matter more Can scan variable names Be careful! 57 http://openjdk.java.net/projects/amber/LVTIstyle.html
58. @jeanneboyarsky Lambdas Predicate<String> pred1 = p -> true; Predicate<String> pred2 = (String p) -> true; Predicate<String> pred3 = (var p) -> true; (11) 58
59. @jeanneboyarsky Annotations BiPredicate< Map<Integer, String>, List<String>> func = (@NotNull var map, var list) -> true; (11) 59
60. @jeanneboyarsky All or nothing Good (var map, var list) -> true No good (var map, list) -> true (var map, List list) -> true (11) 60
61. @jeanneboyarsky GARBAGE COLLECTION (10/11) 61
62. @jeanneboyarsky Choose your own GC •  Who cares? •  Agile. With releases every 6 months, features are smaller (10) 62
63. @jeanneboyarsky Faster Default GC Java 8 Parallel Garbage Collector Java 9 G1 GC Java 10 + 11 G1 GC with parallel implementation (10) For more, see https://speakerdeck.com/cguntur/garbage- collection-in-java-9 63
64. @jeanneboyarsky Regions & space vs speed (10) For more, see https://speakerdeck.com/cguntur 64
65. @jeanneboyarsky Epsilon GC (11) •  Never reclaims memory •  Program proceeds until run out of heap •  GC never runs •  To use: •  -XX:+UseEpsilonGC •  (or) -XX:+UseNoGC 65
66. @jeanneboyarsky Epsilon GC Good for (11) •  Performance/memory stress test •  Very short programs •  Last ditch performance improvements (this probably isn’t you) 66
67. @jeanneboyarsky Z GC (11) •  Experimental •  10ms or less pause time •  Only for Linux/x64 •  To use, enable both: •  -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions •  -XX:+UseZGC 67
68. @jeanneboyarsky TIME BASED VERSIONING (10) 68
69. @jeanneboyarsky String javaVersion = System.getProperty("java.version"); Runtime.Version version = Runtime.Version.parse(javaVersion); System.out.println(javaVersion + ": " + version.feature() + " " + version.interim() + " " + version.update() + " " + version.patch()); (10) 69
70. @jeanneboyarsky (10) 10.0.1 11-ea [deprecated] major() 10 11 [deprecated] minor() 0 0 [deprecated] security() 1 0 70
71. @jeanneboyarsky (10) 10.0.1 11-ea feature() 10 11 interim() 0 0 update() 1 0 patch() 0 0 71
72. @jeanneboyarsky (10) Updates Examples feature() Every 6 months 10, 11, 12 interim() n/a for Open JDK 0 update() Within 6 months 0, 1, 2 patch() Emergencies 0, 1, 2 72
73. @jeanneboyarsky System.out.println( System.getProperty("java.version.date")); (10) 10.0.1 11-ea 2018-04-17 2018-09-25 Yes, the future! 73
74. @jeanneboyarsky System.out.println( System.getProperty("java.version.version")); •  Null for Open JDK •  For vendor use (10) Yes, version is here twice! 74
75. @jeanneboyarsky ODDS AND ENDS 75
76. @jeanneboyarsky New java launcher mode Full command Shorthand javac HelloWorld.java java HelloWorld java HelloWorld.java Produces class file Fully in memory For any program For programs with one class (11) 76
77. @jeanneboyarsky Unmodifiable Collections (10) 77 Copying another Terminal operations List.copyOf Collectors.toUnmodifiableList Set.copyOf Collectors.toUnmodifiableSet Map.copyOf Collectors.toUnmodifiableMap
78. @jeanneboyarsky Behind the Scenes •  Nest based access control •  Remove hack for private access in nested classes •  Pay off tech debt (11) 78
79. @jeanneboyarsky Nashorn Java 11 •  Challenging to maintain •  Unclear adoption •  May be adopted •  Made it into Java 11 two days before cutoff (11) 79
80. @jeanneboyarsky Unicode 9 and 10 Support Languages + emoji (10+11) 80
81. @jeanneboyarsky Tying it all together (10+11) 81 import java.nio.charset.*; public class Unicode { public static void main(String... args) { System.out.print("Have a \uD83C\uDF7A"); System.out.println(" or a \uD83E\uDD64"); } }
