Pattern Matching in Java - Past, Present, Future

_`switch` and `instanceof` have been the gates of data introspection in Java since 1.0.

In this talk we are going to have a look into what `switch` and `instanceof` are for Java developers today and offer a holistic view of all the exciting directions that can be a possible future for Java's pattern matching abilities._ Presented by *Angelos Bimpoudis* - Principal Member of Technical Staff (Java Platform Group - Oracle) during *Devoxx Belgium* 2024 ➤ https://devoxx.be Q&As with Angelos Bimpoudis ➱ https://www.youtube.com/live/tTeCjDPojgo?feature=shared More ... ➱ https://inside.java/tag/amber *Tags:* #Java #OpenJDK
