Java 22 Brings Developers Better Usability, Promise Of Simplification
ITProToday, Wednesday, March 20th, 2024
The new Java release introduces incremental technology improvements designed to make the programming language easier to use.
The first major release of Java in 2024 is now available with the launch of Java 22 on March 19.
Java 22 arrives six months after Java 21 and is an incremental feature update, not a Long-Term Support (LTS) release. With each new Java update, the community of developers led by Oracle works on a series of Java Enhancement Proposals (JEPs) that are typically clustered under larger projects. The major Java projects include Loom, Panama, and Amber, each having specific long-term goals for improving Java, with incremental capabilities landing in each new Java update.
