Java SE 9: Exploiting Modularity and Other New Features

• Kurz je vhodný pre Java programátorov, ktorí používajú staršiu verziu Javy (5-8) a chcú sa oboznámiť s novinkami Java SE 9, napríklad písať modularizované knižnice.

• Design applications to take advantage of the module system and its more reliable configuration, improved security and performance, and more easily scalable applications.
• Migrate existing applications to a modular applications in a step-by-step manner, choosing which parts of the application to migrate first.
• Deal with common problems encountered in migrating an application, including, cyclic dependencies and split packages.
• Use services to make modularized applications more robust and easily extensible.
• Create multi-release JAR files that can be run on different Java releases.
• Use convenience methods to reduce code that seems verbose, inefficient or boilerplate, and increase readability.
• Use JShell to quickly run small code experiments and test new APIs.

• Znalosť Java SE programovania na bežnej úrovni, generics, lambda výrazy, Stream API.
