序

本文主要讲述一下Java15的新特性

版本号

java -version

openjdk version "15" 2020-09-15

OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 15+36-1562)

OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 15+36-1562, mixed mode, sharing)

从version信息可以看出是build 15+36

特性列表

339:Edwards-Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA)

新增rfc8032描述的Edwards-Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA)实现

使用示例

// example: generate a key pair and sign

KeyPairGenerator kpg = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance("Ed25519");

KeyPair kp = kpg.generateKeyPair();

// algorithm is pure Ed25519

Signature sig = Signature.getInstance("Ed25519");

sig.initSign(kp.getPrivate());

sig.update(msg);

byte[] s = sig.sign();

// example: use KeyFactory to contruct a public key

KeyFactory kf = KeyFactory.getInstance("EdDSA");

boolean xOdd = ...

BigInteger y = ...

NamedParameterSpec paramSpec = new NamedParameterSpec("Ed25519");

EdECPublicKeySpec pubSpec = new EdECPublicKeySpec(paramSpec, new EdPoint(xOdd, y));

PublicKey pubKey = kf.generatePublic(pubSpec);

360:Sealed Classes (Preview)

JDK15引入了sealed classes and interfaces.用于限定实现类，限定父类的使用，为后续的pattern matching的exhaustive analysis提供便利

示例

package com.example.geometry;

public abstract sealed class Shape

permits Circle, Rectangle, Square {...}

public final class Circle extends Shape {...}

public sealed class Rectangle extends Shape

permits TransparentRectangle, FilledRectangle {...}

public final class TransparentRectangle extends Rectangle {...}

public final class FilledRectangle extends Rectangle {...}

public non-sealed class Square extends Shape {...}

这里使用了3个关键字，一个是sealed，一个是permits，一个是non-sealed；permits的这些子类要么使用final，要么使用sealed，要么使用non-sealed修饰；针对record类型，也可以使用sealed，因为record类型暗示这final

package com.example.expression;

public sealed interface Expr

permits ConstantExpr, PlusExpr, TimesExpr, NegExpr {...}

public record ConstantExpr(int i) implements Expr {...}

public record PlusExpr(Expr a, Expr b) implements Expr {...}

public record TimesExpr(Expr a, Expr b) implements Expr {...}

public record NegExpr(Expr e) implements Expr {...}

371:Hidden Classes

JDK15引入了Hidden Classes，同时废弃了非标准的sun.misc.Unsafe::defineAnonymousClass，目标是为frameworks提供在运行时生成内部的class

372:Remove the Nashorn JavaScript Engine

JDK15移除了Nashorn JavaScript Engine及jjs tool，它们在JDK11的被标记为废弃；具体就是jdk.scripting.nashorn及jdk.scripting.nashorn.shell这两个模块被移除了

373:Reimplement the Legacy DatagramSocket API

该特性使用更简单及更现代的方式重新实现了java.net.DatagramSocket及java.net.MulticastSocket以方便更好的维护及debug，新的实现将会更容易支持virtual threads

374:Disable and Deprecate Biased Locking

该特性默认禁用了biased locking(-XX:+UseBiasedLocking)，并且废弃了所有相关的命令行选型(BiasedLockingStartupDelay, BiasedLockingBulkRebiasThreshold, BiasedLockingBulkRevokeThreshold, BiasedLockingDecayTime, UseOptoBiasInlining, PrintBiasedLockingStatistics and PrintPreciseBiasedLockingStatistics)

375:Pattern Matching for instanceof (Second Preview)

instanceof的Pattern Matching在JDK15进行Second Preview，示例如下:

public boolean equals(Object o) {

return (o instanceof CaseInsensitiveString cis) &&

cis.s.equalsIgnoreCase(s);

}

377:ZGC: A Scalable Low-Latency Garbage Collector

ZGC在JDK11被作为experimental feature引入，在JDK15变成Production，但是这并不是替换默认的GC，默认的GC仍然还是G1；之前需要通过-XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+UseZGC来启用ZGC，现在只需要-XX:+UseZGC就可以

相关的参数有ZAllocationSpikeTolerance、ZCollectionInterval、ZFragmentationLimit、ZMarkStackSpaceLimit、ZProactive、ZUncommit、ZUncommitDelay

ZGC-specific JFR events(ZAllocationStall、ZPageAllocation、ZPageCacheFlush、ZRelocationSet、ZRelocationSetGroup、ZUncommit)也从experimental变为product

378:Text Blocks

Text Blocks在JDK13被作为preview feature引入，在JDK14作为Second Preview，在JDK15变为最终版

379:Shenandoah: A Low-Pause-Time Garbage Collector

Shenandoah在JDK12被作为experimental引入，在JDK15变为Production；之前需要通过-XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+UseShenandoahGC来启用，现在只需要-XX:+UseShenandoahGC即可启用

381:Remove the Solaris and SPARC Ports

Solaris and SPARC Ports在JDK14被标记为废弃，在JDK15版本正式移除

383:Foreign-Memory Access API (Second Incubator)

Foreign-Memory Access API在JDK14被作为incubating API引入，在JDK15处于Second Incubator

384:Records (Second Preview)

Records在JDK14被作为preview引入，在JDK15处于Second Preview

385:Deprecate RMI Activation for Removal

JDK15废弃了RMI Activation，后续将被移除

细项解读

上面列出的是大方面的特性，除此之外还有一些api的更新及废弃，主要见JDK 15 Release Notes，这里举几个例子。

添加项

- Support for Unicode 13.0 (JDK-8239383)

升级了Unicode，支持Unicode 13.0

- Added isEmpty Default Method to CharSequence (JDK-8215401)

给CharSequence新增了isEmpty方法

java.base/java/lang/CharSequence.java

/**

* Returns {@code true} if this character sequence is empty.

*

* @implSpec

* The default implementation returns the result of calling {@code length() == 0}.

*

* @return {@code true} if {@link #length()} is {@code 0}, otherwise

* {@code false}

*

* @since 15

*/

default boolean isEmpty() {

return this.length() == 0;

}

- Added Support for SO_INCOMING_NAPI_ID Support (JDK-8243099)

jdk.net.ExtendedSocketOptions新增了SO_INCOMING_NAPI_ID选型

- Specialized Implementations of TreeMap Methods (JDK-8176894)

JDK15对TreeMap提供了putIfAbsent, computeIfAbsent, computeIfPresent, compute, merge方法提供了overriding实现

- New Option Added to jcmd for Writing a gzipped Heap Dump (JDK-8237354)

jcmd的GC.heap_dump命令现在支持gz选型，以dump出gzip压缩版的heap；compression level从1(fastest)到9(slowest, but best compression)，默认为1

- New System Properties to Configure the TLS Signature Schemes (JDK-8242141)

新增了jdk.tls.client.SignatureSchemes及jdk.tls.server.SignatureSchemes用于配置TLS Signature Schemes

- Support for certificate_authorities Extension (JDK-8206925)

支持certificate_authorities的扩展

移除项

已知问题

- java.net.HttpClient Does Not Override Protocols Specified in SSLContext Default Parameters (JDK-8239594)

HttpClient现在没有覆盖在SSLContext Default Parameters中指定的Protocols

其他事项

- DatagramPacket.getPort() Returns 0 When the Port Is Not Set (JDK-8237890)

当DatagramPacket没有设置port的时候，其getPort方法返回0

- Improved Ergonomics for G1 Heap Region Size (JDK-8241670)

优化了默认G1 Heap Region Size的计算
