序

本文主要讲述一下Java16的新特性

版本号

java -version
openjdk version "16" 2021-03-16
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 16+36-2231)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 16+36-2231, mixed mode, sharing)

从version信息可以看出是build 16+36

特性列表

JEP 338: Vector API (Incubator)

提供了jdk.incubator.vector来用于矢量计算，实例如下

static final VectorSpecies<Float> SPECIES = FloatVector.SPECIES_256;

void vectorComputation(float[] a, float[] b, float[] c) {

    for (int i = 0; i < a.length; i += SPECIES.length()) {
        var m = SPECIES.indexInRange(i, a.length);
        // FloatVector va, vb, vc;
        var va = FloatVector.fromArray(SPECIES, a, i, m);
        var vb = FloatVector.fromArray(SPECIES, b, i, m);
        var vc = va.mul(va).
                    add(vb.mul(vb)).
                    neg();
        vc.intoArray(c, i, m);
    }
}

JEP 347: Enable C++14 Language Features

在JDK C++的源码中允许使用C++14的语言特性

JEP 357: Migrate from Mercurial to Git

OpenJDK源码的版本控制从Mercurial (hg) 迁移到git

JEP 369: Migrate to GitHub

将OpenJDK源码的版本控制迁移到github上

JEP 376: ZGC: Concurrent Thread-Stack Processing

实现了并发thread-stack处理来降低GC safepoints的负担

JEP 380: Unix-Domain Socket Channels

对socket channel及server socket channel的api提供对unix domain socket的支持

JEP 386: Alpine Linux Port

将glibc的jdk移植到使用musl的alpine linux上

JEP 387: Elastic Metaspace

支持不再使用的class metadata归还内存给操作系统，降低内存占用

JEP 388: Windows/AArch64 Port

移植JDK到Windows/AArch64

JEP 389: Foreign Linker API (Incubator)

提供jdk.incubator.foreign来简化native code的调用

JEP 390: Warnings for Value-Based Classes

提供@jdk.internal.ValueBased来用于标注作为value-based的类，实例如下

@jdk.internal.ValueBased
public final class SomeVbc {

    public SomeVbc() {}

    final String ref = "String";

    void abuseVbc() {

        synchronized(ref) {           // OK
            synchronized (this) {     // WARN
            }
        }
    }
}

final class AuxilliaryAbuseOfVbc {

    void abuseVbc(SomeVbc vbc) {

        synchronized(this) {           // OK
            synchronized (vbc) {       // WARN
            }
        }
    }
}

JEP 392: Packaging Tool

jpackage在JDK14引入，JDK15作为incubating工具，在JDK16转正，从jdk.incubator.jpackage转为jdk.jpackage。它支持Linux: deb and rpm、macOS: pkg and dmg、Windows: msi and exe

JEP 393: Foreign-Memory Access API (Third Incubator)

Foreign-Memory Access API在JDK14首次引入作为incubating API，在JDK15处于第二轮incubating，在JDK16处于第三轮incubating

JEP 394: Pattern Matching for instanceof

instanceof的模式匹配在JDK14作为preview，在JDK15作为第二轮的preview，在JDK16转正

JEP 395: Records

Record类型在JDK14作为preview，在JDK15处于第二轮preview，在JDK16转正

JEP 396: Strongly Encapsulate JDK Internals by Default

对内部的api进行更多的封装，鼓励开发者从使用内部的方法迁移到标准的API，但是sun.misc.Unsafe还是继续保留

JEP 397: Sealed Classes (Second Preview)

Sealed Classes在JDK15作为preview引入，在JDK16作为第二轮preview
