Inhaltsangabe

Understanding Java from the JVM up gives you a solid foundation to grow your expertise and take on advanced techniques for performance, concurrency, containerization, and more.

In  The Well-Grounded Java Developer, Second Edition you will learn:

• The new Java module system and why you should use it
• Bytecode for the JVM, including operations and classloading
• Performance tuning the JVM
• Working with Java's built-in concurrency and expanded options
• Programming in Kotlin and Clojure on the JVM
• Maximizing the benefits from your build/CI tooling with Maven and Gradle
• Running the JVM in containers
• Planning for future JVM releases

The Well-Grounded Java Developer, Second Edition introduces both the modern innovations and timeless fundamentals you need to know to become a Java master. Authors Ben Evans, Martijn Verburg, and Jason Clark distil their decades of experience as Java Champions, veteran developers, and key contributors to the Java ecosystem into this clear and practical guide.

about the technology

Java's history of innovation, its huge collection of libraries and frameworks, and the flexibility of the JVM have cemented its place as one of the world's most popular programming languages. Although it's easy to get started with Java, understanding how the language intersects with the JVM is the key to unlocking the power of this awesome language and its deep ecosystem of frameworks, tools, and alternative JVM-based languages.

about the book

The Well-Grounded Java Developer, Second Edition is a complete revision of the classic original with the latest innovations of the Java platform. It upgrades your existing Java skills with both JVM fundamentals like bytecode, and powerful new features such as modules and concurrency models.

You'll broaden your understanding of what's possible by exploring Kotlin and other JVM languages, and learn how functional programming can offer a powerful new perspective. Each concept is illustrated with hands-on examples, including a fully modularized application/library, build setups for Maven and Gradle, and creating your own multithreaded application.
