Java 11 and 12 – New Features

Conventions used

There are a number of text conventions used throughout this book.

CodeInText: Indicates code words in text, database table names, folder names, filenames, file extensions, pathnames, dummy URLs, user input, and Twitter handles. Here is an example: "The PUT request is used to create or update an entity on a server, using a URI."

A block of code is set as follows:

class GarmentFactory {     void createShirts() {         Shirt redShirtS = new Shirt(Size.SMALL, Color.red); 

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

abstract record JVMLanguage(String name, int year); record Conference(String name, String venue, DateTime when);
