Oreilly - Moving to Java 9: Better Design and Simpler Code
by Trisha Gee | Released December 2017 | ISBN: 0134857666
4+ Hours of Video Instruction Java 9 introduces new features and functions that will make your code simpler and easier to read and will make for better deployment and documentation as well. There are also a number of changes, however, that might have unexpected consequences for your applications. This video covers the advantages of Java 9 and how to manage risks when migrating an application to this version. Description In Moving to Java 9 LiveLessons, Java Champion Trisha Gee introduces the key new features and shows how to migrate existing Java 8 applications to Java 9 in order to make use of these powerful features. You will learn how Java 9 enables: More secure applicationsBetter design through improved encapsulation and separation of concernsCleaner, easier to read code After quickly showing how to check your existing Java 8 code for compatibility before switching to Java 9, Trisha then reviews how Java 9 Modules work, what they are, why you might use them, and how to make your applications modular. In this training, she also covers what Reactive Streams are and how and where to use them, before moving on to look at JShell, the Java REPL. Along the way, Trisha discusses the many advantages of switching to Java 9, including: Better use of memoryBetter performance of secure applications, locking, and graphics.Better use of hardwareBetter and easier to navigate documentationPrettier graphics, particularly for Windows and LinuxFaster compilation Related Code Files: The code for this training can be found at https://github.com/trishagee/sense-nine. About the Instructor Trisha Gee has developed Java applications for a range of industries, including finance, manufacturing, technology, open source, and non-profit, for companies of all sizes. She has expertise in Java high-performance systems, and is passionate about enabling developer productivity. Trisha blogs regularly on subjects that she thinks developers and other humans should care about. She's a leader of the Sevilla Java User Group, a key member of the London Java Community and a Java Champion. https://twitter.com/trisha_gee https://es.linkedin.com/in/trishagee Skill Level Intermediate What You Will Learn How best to prepare your application for Java 9What is Jigsaw and the Java Platform Module SystemWhat is the Reactive Streams API and why is it usefulWhat is a REPL and how to use JShell Who Should Take This Course Java developers who are working on an existing system. From a technical point of view, this is suitable for developers working with Java every day, but senior/lead developers and architects will find this talk useful to decide whether to apply these changes in their applications, and to provide guidance to the rest of their teams. Course Requirements Experience with the Java Programming language Lesson Descriptions LESSON 1: Getting Ready for Java 9 In this lesson, you look at what you can do to prepare your application for Java 9 without even having to use it. You look at which compiler warnings in Java 8 should be addressed and how to fix them. You see how to use the jdeps tool to find code that needs to be updated before you can use Java 9. You also step through an example of compiling a project in Java 9 that hasn't been through these steps to see what kind of problems you might face. LESSON 2: The Java Platform Module System Project Jigsaw and Java Modularity are the big ticket items for Java 9, so in this lesson you take a look at what these are. First, you find out what Project Jigsaw is and how this differs from the Java Platform Module System. Next, you walk through a simple example of creating a modular application, and you use the link tool to create a very small image of Java and our application. Then you migrate an existing application to use the Java Module System. You see how visualizing dependencies and modules can help you to better understand the design, and finally wrap up the lesson with a summary of the advantages and disadvantages of migrating to using JPMS. LESSON 3: Reactive Programming with Java 9 This latest version of Java comes with the Reactive Streams API as part of the language, so first you need to understand what this is and what it means. You take a look at how your existing application could benefit from using the Reactive Streams API and show how to use it in your architecture. You then use two different Reactive libraries within your application to see what you can do with Reactive Programming. Finally, you explore how Reactive Streams are different from Java 8 Streams. LESSON 4: JShell, the Java REPL A Read Eval Print Loop for Java is a new way of working, so you need to understand what a REPL is and what it provides. You also take a quick look at how the introduction of a REPL can change the way you work inside your IDE. LESSON 5: API Changes in Java 9 In this lesson, you learn about the wide variety of small language changes in Java 9 that are going to help you. First, you have Convenience Factory Methods for Collections, then the small changes from Milling Project Coin. You play with two new methods on the Streams API, take a look at the new methods on Optional, and go through practical examples of using the new Stack Walking API and the updates to the Process API. LESSON 6: Other Interesting Changes in Java 9 In this lesson, you cover pretty much everything else in Java 9 you should be aware of that you haven't already looked at, including multi-release JAR files, the updated deprecation, updates to Javadoc, and other changes that might impact your application.
