#Java14

IntelliJ IDEA offers all the automatic refactoring we'd expect for #Java14 Record classes. For example, we can change the signature of the record header to switch the order of the parameters #TheDriveToDevelop

Sometimes (e.g. during TDD) we define what our classes look like by using them, and then have IntelliJ IDEA generate the correct code. IntelliJ IDEA 2020.1 lets us generate a #Java14 Record, either in its own file or as an inner class #TheDriveToDevelop

#Java14 is introducing multiple language changes. Check out this blog post to know how you can use all the new #Java14 language features in #IntelliJIDEA 2020.1: To unleash their potential, use these features in combination with other features.

IntelliJ IDEA 2020.1 (currently EAP) not only supports the new #Java14 Record syntax, but can generate new record classes for you to help you get started. Try it now! (download #Java 14: #TheDriveToDevelop

“These features remove boilerplate code and make code highly expressive, and intuitive—easy to both write and maintain.” @java Champions explain why #Java14 makes code super expressive. (via @Forbes)

April's #Java Annotated Monthly is out now! Containing news on #Java14, IntelliJ IDEA 2020.1, and a whole new section on tips for remote work.

Did you know? Accessor methods for #Java14's Record classes don't start with the word "get"! IntelliJ IDEA 2020.1 does the right thing when generating "getters" for record classes, in case you want to add any logic to the accessors. #TheDriveToDevelop

Since Records are a new Preview Feature in #Java14 we might not be familiar with the syntax. IntelliJ IDEA 2020.1 can help, for example allowing us to switch between the new compact constructor form and a canonical constructor. Try it! #TheDriveToDevelop

Curious about new features in #Java14? I'll be giving a lightning talk on records (JEP 359) at #OpenJ9's community call this Wednesday @ 11am EST. Join the Slack planning channel for meeting details.

Java 14 is out. @starbuxman walks us through all the cool new features like records, multiline strings and smarter switch expressions: #Java14 #SpringBoot

Records are intended to be simple data carriers, a version of tuples that fits into Java’s established type system in a logical and consistent manner. #java14 #openjdk #java @kittylyst

#PatternMatching in #Java14 extends the instanceof operator with a type test pattern. Download #IntelliJIDEA 2020.1 EAP and check it out today: Stay tuned for more updates on using Java 14 with IntelliJ IDEA. #TheDriveToDevelop

IntelliJ IDEA 2020.1 can generate compact constructors for our #Java14 Record classes, so we can easily add validation (for example) for our record components. Try out #Java 14 preview features in IntelliJ IDEA now! #TheDriveToDevelop

Wooohooo for Java Records! Played around with this #Java14 preview feature yesterday and look how much less code is needed! 🔗

IntelliJ IDEA 2020.1 identifies places where we can use the #Java14 Pattern Matching for instanceof Preview Feature. It will automatically convert instanceof + cast to the new syntax #TheDriveToDevelop

IntelliJ IDEA 2020.1 (EAP) can generate canonical constructors for our #Java14 Record classes, in case we want to do something with our values on construction. IntelliJ IDEA will let us know if we can use a compact constructor instead #TheDriveToDevelop

Language evolution comes in both large and small packages (and sometimes the smaller ones are really stepping stones that unlock bigger changes). Discover the ones that will have an impact on your work. Download the free emag #java #java12 #java14
