Java 11 and 12 – New Features

A quick example

Are you excited to see raw strings in action? I am. Let's look at a quick example, before diving into the problems that led to the introduction of raw strings.

The following code shows how you can write a multiline string value with raw string literals, using a backtick (`) as the delimiter, without using a concatenation operator or special indicators for a newline or tab:

String html =  
`<HTML>                                      
    <BODY> 
        <H1>Meaning of life</H1>  
    </BODY> 
</HTML>
