The Three Amigos: Intermixing Pattern Matching, Records, and Sealed Classes
Thu, 24 April
One of the coolest aspects of Java is the fact that the newer features do not live in isolation, but interplay quite nicely with each other. A place where this is clearly evident is the synergy between records, sealed classes, and pattern matching. In this presentation, we will focus on pattern matching and how its power is enhanced by records and sealed classes. The details presented will help you make the best use of all three features in your own applications.
Target Audience: This session is primarily aimed at Back-end Developers, as they are most likely to work with Java’s newer features such as pattern matching, records, and sealed classes in large-scale applications, and these features can simplify and enhance their code. Software Architects are the secondary audience, as understanding how these Java features interact can influence architectural decisions, particularly around data modeling and system design.
