Features

Language

  • Sealed types
    • Restrict which types can extend/implement a type
    • Constraints:
      • The sealed class and its permitted subclasses must belong to the same module, and, if declared in an unnamed module, the same package.
      • Every permitted subclass must directly extend the sealed class.
      • Every permitted subclass must choose a modifier to describe how it continues the sealing initiated by its superclass:
        • final
        • sealed
        • non-sealed (back to a normal class open to extensibility)
  • Pattern matching for instanceof (second preview - no changes)
  • Text blocks (standard)
  • Records (second preview)
    • Integration with sealed types in interfaces
      • The combination of record and sealed types is referred as algebraic data types.

JVM

  • GC turned final:
