JDK 11 is a robust and optimized software package designed to support Java applications comprehensively. It comes packed with a rich set of components and features, aiming to assist developers in writing, testing, and deploying Java applications more efficiently.
The JDK 11 can convert source code written by developers into executable bytecode for machines, offering a range of optimization options to ensure the generated code performs optimally.
It enables developers to execute code incrementally during development, inspect variable values, and identify and resolve potential issues. This is crucial for maintaining the correctness and stability of applications.
Debugging is another significant component in JDK 11. It allows developers to step through their code during development, examine variable values, and locate and fix potential problems, which is essential for ensuring the accuracy and stability of applications.
The Java Virtual Machine (JVM) in JDK 11 serves as the foundation for running Java applications. It is responsible for converting bytecode into machine code that is specific to the operating system and hardware, and it provides key functions such as memory management and garbage collection. JDK 11 has further optimized the JVM to enhance application performance and responsiveness.
Local Variable Type Inference (introduced as the 'var' keyword in Java 10) has been further refined and promoted in JDK 11. It allows developers to omit type information when declaring local variables, thereby enhancing code conciseness and readability.
