Engineering | Josh Long | September 19, 2023 | ...

Hi, Spring fans! Java 21 and GraalVM supporting Java 21 are at long last here! It's been a long time in coming, but Java 21 - which comes out later today on the 19th of September, 2023 - brings with it some of the most exciting new features of any Java release. In this video, I (https://www.youtube.com/@coffeesoftware) will look at some of the foundational features from Java 17 and see how they culminate in Java 21. I'll look at the biggest features - virtual threads and pattern matching. I'll also look at some of the quality-of-life features that you might not otherwise notice, but that are…

Engineering | Josh Long | September 19, 2023 | ...

Hi, Spring fans! Welcome to another installment of This Week in Spring - Java 21 edition!

The big news, indeed, the biggest news, is that Java 21 is now available here! You should use SDKMAN to install it, like this: sdk install java 21-graalce && sdk default java 21-graalce. This install givews you both the new Java 21 OpenJDK distribution and the new GraalVM native image support for Java 21.
