Java 9 - The Jigsaw Module System
Saturday - Oct 21 4:30 PM CDT - SALON A
With Java 9, modularity will be built in to the Java platform…Finally! In this session, we explore the default Jigsaw module system and compare it to the alternative module system, OSGi, on the Java platform.
We will demonstrate the impact that Jigsaw will have on our existing applications and identify what we must do to get ready for Jigsaw. You will also see firsthand how to use the Jigsaw module system and the benefits that support for modularity on the Java platform will have on your applications.
