Why @SafeVarargs is required in Java 9?
The varargs functionality has been introduced in Java to facilitate the creation of methods with a variable number of arguments without resorting to array-type parameters or overloaded versions of the same method.Before Java 9 versions, if vararg methods are used with generics, then there is a warning message. Even though not all methods create heap pollution, compiler shows warning for all vararg methods used with generics. That's the reason @SafeVarargs concept was added to Java 9 version to avoid these warnings. If we added this annotation, then the compiler stops these warnings.We can compile the code by using the below ...
Read MoreHow to re-execute existing snippets in JShell in Java 9?
JShell is the first REPL tool introduced in Java 9. We can able to execute simple snippets in a command-line prompt by using JShell tool. We can start a JShell session by typing "jshell" command, stop the session by typing "/exit" command, and search for particular command by using "/help" command.The "/reload" command can be used to re-execute all existing snippets in JShell. We can also remove all prior code from a JShell session by using the "/reset" command.In the below code snippet, we have created a set of snippets.jshell> 2+10 $1 ==> 12 jshell> String s = "Tutorialspoint" ...
Read MoreDifferences between Java 8 and Java 9?
Java 9 version has introduced new enhancements and added new features. It includes JShell, Http2Client, Java Platform Module System (JPMS), Multi-release jar files, Stack Walking API, Private methods in an interface, Process API updates, Collection API updates, Stream API improvements, and etc.Below are the few differences between Java 8 and Java 9In Java 8 and earlier versions, the top-level component is the package. It places a set of related types (classes, interfaces, enums, and etc) into a group, and also contains a set of resources whereas Java 9 introduces a new component: module, which can be used to place a ...
Read MoreHow can we execute snippets by ID in JShell in Java 9?
JShell is an interactive tool (REPL) introduced in Java 9. We can execute snippets like expressions, variables, methods, classes, and etc without a main () method in the JShell tool.We can execute any prior snippet by simply typing /id, which indicates the snippet’s ID. For instance, if we type "/1", then JShell can display the first snippet that we have entered, executes it, and shows the result. We can re-execute the last snippet that we have entered (whether it is valid or invalid) by using "/!".In the below code snippet, we have created a set of snippets, and execute those ...
Read MoreHow can we avoid compilation errors in JShell in Java 9?
JShell is an interactive tool that enables us to execute java code and displays the output instantly. JShell is the REPL(Read-Evaluate-Print-Loop) tool that runs from the command-line prompt. If we need to avoid the compilation-errors in JShell, then we must declare those variables before using it. The error message in JShell can use the notation "^--^" to highlight an error.In the below code snippet, the declaration of an int variable "div" attempts to use variables: num1, and num2 that has not been declared, so JShell reports a compilation error, indicating that the compiler was unable to find those variables.C:\Users\User>jshell | ...
Read MoreWhat are the components in a module-info file in Java 9?
A module is an independent unit of application that represents a single functionality. A module contains three important componentsName: To uniquely identify itDependencies: Other modules in which it depends onExported packages: Packages which are open for external applicationIn order to declare a module, we need to add the "module-info.java" file to the root source code. The components of the "module-info.java" file includes "name", "requires", "exports", and "exports to".Below is the template of "module-info.java" filemodule { requires ; requires ; ... exports ; exports ; ... exports to ; }Name: It is ...
Read MoreHow can we display all module names in Java 9?
In Java 9, the module concept has introduced. It is a named, self-describing collection of code and data. The code can be organized as a set of packages containing types like java classes and interfaces, and data includes resources and other kinds of static information. A module contains a name, dependencies, and exported packages.Syntaxmodule com.tutorialspoint.mymodule { // some statements }In the below example, we can able to display all module names by using the ModuleLayer class.Examplepublic class AllModulesNamesTest { public static void main(String args[]) { ModuleLayer.boot().modules().forEach((module) -> { ...
Read MoreHow to print the pattern of stars in JShell in Java 9?
JShell is a REPL tool introduced in Java 9 that allows us to execute Java code and getting results immediately. We can evaluate expressions or simple algorithms without creating a new project, compile or build it by using JShell. We can also execute expressions, use imports, define classes, methods, and variables. It is a part of Java 9 JDK but not JRE.We can start JShell session in command-prompt by simply typing jshell. We can use different commands: /exit to quit the JShell session, reset/reload JShell anytime by typing /reset, and /reload, /import to list the imports, etc.In the below example, ...
Read MoreWhat are Compact Strings in Java 9?
Since Java 9, the JVM optimizes strings by using a new feature called Compact Strings. Instead of having a char[] array, a string can be represented as a byte[] array. We can use either UTF-16 or Latin-1 to produce either one or two bytes per character. If JVM detects the string contains only ISO-8859-1/Latin-1 characters, then string uses one byte per character internally.The string can be represented with a compact string or not is detected when the string is created. This feature has enabled by default and switches off using the -XX:-CompactStrings. It doesn't revert to a char[] implementation and ...
Read MoreHow to display all stack frames of the current thread in Java 9?
Stack Walking API can provide a flexible mechanism to traverse and extract information from call stacks that allow us to filter and access frames in a lazy manner. StackWalker class is an entry point to Stack Walking API. The stack trace is a representation of a call stack at a certain point of time in which each element represents a method invocation. It contains all invocations from the start of a thread until the point it’s generated.In the below example, we can print/display all stack frames of the current thread by using StackWalker API.Exampleimport java.lang.StackWalker.StackFrame; import java.lang.reflect.Method; import java.util.List; import java.util.stream.Collectors; public ...
