Great summary. I decided to jump from 8 to 17 and this is a great highlight reel of features I am happy to see (except maybe "var"). Another feature I love now is how easy it is to read and write text files using Files.readString() and Files.writeString().

You're right, I should have covered it as well! Working with files in Java used to be a nightmare :)

Clarity in your content is really appreciable. You saved my day and thanks a bunch.

You ignore the most important feature, of the switch... it can be an expression and you can return a value. Why repeat the System.out.println() 4 times, when you can simply return the club and print it using one println call? Everyone seems to be obsessed about doing their side effects everywhere... Method is easier to test when you return a value.

Great video! I recently saw a meme praising Java 19 (I think), and was surprised to see what the fuss was all about. Not surprised to know that most of these features are already built in Kotlin.

Great! Simple explanation and demonstrative examples. Thanks a lot!

As a concrete example where var is very handy: Spring! ClassPathXmlApplicationContext context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("applicationContext.xml"); Saves copy-pasting (or worse, retyping) the class name!

This is such a great video. Haven't touched Java in years, and wanted to see what the differences were... Perfect ! Loving that NullPointerException message now. You know what it's like. As hard as you try, something somewhere doesn't get set. Then you're spending ages figuring out the specifics. This just gives you that little bit more detail to get you started. Really don't get the point of sealed classes/interfaces though. One useful thing I guess is it tells you which classes implement/extend it. But still, could come back to bite you in the ass I reckon! Thank you anyway. Really useful.

One of the viewers came up with a concrete example where var can be used - long class names like ClassPathXmlApplicationContext. And I agree with this because usually a variable name is more important than a class name. So var is kind of a syntactic sugar making code a little bit cleaner and easier to read :) But I also agree that's not much and probably it'll be used extremely rarely ; )

It covers all of them. And Record is immutable, so instead of writing/generating this (or using Lombok): public class Person { private final String name; private final String address; public Person(String name, String address) { this.name = name; this.address = address; } @Override public int hashCode() { return Objects.hash(name, address); } @Override public boolean equals(Object obj) { if (this == obj) { return true; } else if (!(obj instanceof Person)) { return false; } else { Person other = (Person) obj; return Objects.equals(name, other.name) && Objects.equals(address, other.address); } } @Override public String toString() { return "Person [name=" + name + ", address=" + address + "]"; } public String getName() { return name; } public String getAddress() { return address; } } you only need to write this: public record Person (String name, String address) {}

For an old language like Java, trying to implement modern features without breaking the old code's compilability (it's a word, right?) does not seem to result in a good syntax. Why not just add some sort of compiler directive at the beginning of a file? So, if there is nothing, then compile it like Java 6 or something. If the file has something like /***Java 17*/ at the beginning, then compile it with a new syntax. This way, the Java language designers would have much more freedom to revive this relic language of the 1990's.

Problem is: most of these new features won't be adopted by "big tech" companies anytime soon, because... I think those corporations are the biggest obstacles to the development of java, as they almost have the final say over the technologies they will use, and how they plan to "upgrade" the infrastructure to accomodate modern Java. No matter how Java improves, they can just choose other modern languages for their projects.

At 8:00, why are you inserting getters if the fields are declared final? What's the point? Just make the variables public.

@@egozMaster Yes, I do, and I can see why you might want to make them methods if you decide to change their underlying representation at some point, but for something this simple, you will almost certainly not. Look at Java Swing (and other Java APIs, but Swing is where it is most prevalent from what I've seen), for example: it defines a huge number of final constants with int values (not enums) to be passed to things like borders, alignments, etc. Following strict OOP rules is so late 1990s / early 2000s. Most of the organizations I know and have worked with now use a combination of immutable objects (which are basically equivalent to records) and functional programming instead of long-winded pointless strict OOP principles. I mean, if you want to aim for verbosity and redundancy, knock yourself out, but a final field that stores a primitive type or an abstract interface is just as good as a getter. Do a basic google search and you'll see that pointless getters have fallen out of fashion. There's no need to aim for strict purity unless you're a pedant.
