Here\u2019s a little bit about the programming language, including why it\u2019s so popular, and the latest developments in its evolution. Having celebrated its 23rd anniversary in May, Java is a curious beast. Way back when the programming language started, the web was in its infancy; and as websites burgeoned in popularity, so did Java\u2019s usage. Developers really liked a class-based, object-oriented language that seemed especially effective for client-server web applications (and, later, native apps for the Android mobile operating system). By the turn of the century, Java was arguably the most popular language in the world, and has remained at (or near) the top of popular rankings such as the  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiobe.com\/tiobe-index\/\">TIOBE index<\/a>  and  <a href=\"http:\/\/redmonk.com\/sogrady\/2018\/03\/07\/language-rankings-1-18\/\">RedMonk<\/a>. The language is also constantly updated: Java SE 10 was released in March 2018, effectively making its predecessor (Java SE 9) obsolete.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Detailed Aspects<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re more familiar with the language\u2014you\u2019re a hiring manager who once coded, for instance\u2014here are some things to know about the latest version of the language. First, it includes some  <em>very<\/em>  long-awaited features such as the addition of keyword \u2018var\u2019 for declaring variables without explicitly declaring the type\u2014a mere 11 years after C# did the same. Keyword var reduces the verbosity of Java with a lot less boilerplate code. For instance:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>List list = new LinkedList&lt;&gt;();<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Becomes:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>var list = new LinkedList&lt;&gt;();<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>You can\u2019t just declare a variable with var xyz; the declaration has to have an initial value so the compiler can determine the type. This means your code looks neater, like this:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>var letters = List.of(&#8220;a&#8221;, &#8220;b&#8221;, &#8220;c&#8221;); for (var ch : letters)         System.out.print(ch + &#8220;, &#8220;);<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It\u2019s not quite as powerful as in C#; for instance, you\u2019ll have to wait until a future version for var working with Lambda expression parameters. That being said, it is still a significant improvement that increases the readability of programs. I\u2019ve seen variable declarations where the type name alone is 60 characters or longer; given the impact of var in C#, it\u2019ll probably prove even more effective in Java in reducing this kind of ungainliness. Other new features in Java 10 include improvements to the Garbage Collector, refined thread callbacks, an experimental JIT compiler, and more. You can read all about them in the  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oracle.com\/technetwork\/java\/javase\/10-relnote-issues-4108729.html\">release notes<\/a>. Let\u2019s look closer at unmodifiable collections, which may confound some people new to Java.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Extra Unmodifiable Collections<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In programming, you should be careful to distinguish between unmodifiable and immutable: Immutable collections can\u2019t be changed at all, and have been included since Java 9. An unmodifiable collection is one that does not support any modifications at all, so there are no methods such as add, remove or clear. In addition, an unmodified collection is usually a read-only wrapper of an existing collection. You can\u2019t modify the collection through that reference, but another reference may allow it. (However, the immutable collection can\u2019t ever change.) Here\u2019s an example:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Collection myList = new ArrayList(); myList.add(&#8220;Hi!&#8221;); Collection unModList = Collections.unmodifiableList(myList); Set immutableSet = Set.of(&#8220;alpha&#8221;, &#8220;beta&#8221;, &#8220;gamma\u201d, &#8220;omega&#8221;);<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Here, myList is mutable, as the myList.add(\u201cHi!\u201d); shows. The unmodList uses the unmodifiableList method. You can still modify myList directly, but not through unModList. The immutableSet is shown for comparison; it cannot be altered.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>New Release Cycle<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Java 10 is the open-source reference implementation of the Java SE 10 platform. It\u2019s the first of Oracle\u2019s new six-month release cycles. A new Java Development Kit (JDK) will be released every six months, and a long-term support version (LTS) every three years, as with Ubuntu, Fedora and Red Hat Linux releases. This Java 10 release was originally planned for September 2018, but at some point was switched to March 20, 2018. (It\u2019s a new world when software gets delivered early!) You can get a feel for what\u2019s coming in future releases on the  <a href=\"http:\/\/openjdk.java.net\/\">OpenJDK<\/a>  site. The next release,  <a href=\"http:\/\/openjdk.java.net\/projects\/jdk\/11\/\">JDK 11<\/a>, currently lists four JDK Enhancement Proposals (JEPS), with all proposals listed  <a href=\"http:\/\/openjdk.java.net\/jeps\/0\">here<\/a>. A great measure of a programming language\u2019s popularity is the number of jobs available in its ecosystem; by that standard, Java is doing pretty well, with over  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dice.com\/jobs?q=Java+Developer l= searchid=8696859555695 stst=\">35,000 jobs<\/a>  advertised on  <a href=\"https:\/\/dice.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Dice.com<\/a>  in the U.S. and 3,400 in the UK. (That said, C# and JavaScript also have roughly the same number of jobs in both countries.)<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What of the Enterprise?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Previously known as J2EE, Java EE has been largely abandoned by Oracle, which moved it to an open-source foundation (the Eclipse Foundation) in mid-2017. Personally, I find this baffling because enterprise is where the big bucks are; if you want to get into enterprise development, you should familiarize yourself with Java EE.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Java seems to have gone in two directions. One is in mobile development; for example, you can use it to program Android applications (in addition to Kotlin). Within the enterprise, Java EE is used extensively, although a variety of other languages (including Python, C#, and even VB.NET) are battling it for dominance in the desktop-development space. Nearly four years ago, the ACM published  <a href=\"https:\/\/cacm.acm.org\/blogs\/blog-cacm\/176450-python-is-now-the-most-popular-introductory-teaching-language-at-top-u-s-universities\/fulltext\">an article<\/a>  that showed Python with the edge over Java as the language used to teach introductory-programming courses. But the latter is still the number-one programming language in large businesses, meaning it\u2019s important for recruiters and hiring managers to know!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you\u2019re a recruiter in the tech space, you\u2019ve no doubt heard about Java.
