Walking through the Eclipse IDE tooling support for new Java versions

Kalyan Prasad Tatavarthi (IBM)

Java language has been evolving at a fast pace with the six month release cadence and preview features. These Language features will be discussed in detail in the talk "What's new in Java?".Eclipse IDE provides a list of UI features built on top of this Java language support. Hence, Eclipse IDE also needs to keep pace with the new Java release cycle with support added in UI for the new features- both standard and preview. These Java 16 and 17 features would include Records, Pattern InstanceOf, Sealed Types, Local Interfaces/Enums  and Pattern Matching for Switch .

What's New in Java?

Manoj N Palat (IBM)

Java 17 is an important milestone since this is slated as a long term support (LTS) release. Apart from this designation, more importantly, it is in Java 17 that we are starting to glimpse how the building blocks of earlier releases glue together to provide the pattern programming paradigms. Essentially, the "why" a particular feature/building block exists questions start finding the answers in this version. And this indeed is a huge step for Java as well as Java programmers.
