Benefiting from changes introduced with Java 11

Java 11, was released in September 2018 and had four features, as listed here:

  • Dynamic class-file constants
  • Epsilon—an arbitrarily low-overhead garbage collector
  • Removal of the Java EE and CORBA modules
  • Local variable syntax for Lambda parameters

A brief overview of these features is covered in this chapter, with more detailed coverage in subsequent chapters.
