no more Public Static Void Main

[@adityaparab4314]

C/C++ were my first programming languages. Then I learned python and Javascript. This year few months back I started learning java and the syntax never bothered me. I prefer it the way it is and I get what they want to do with this new version but I barely care about it. Not learning Java sooner will be my biggest regret as a coder. This programming language just made so many concepts clear. public static void main(String[ ] args) all the way!!

[@LauwaliIsaDk]

Hey, you're guru, that is java, it's simple for people like you that come from the very hard languages C/C++ . but beginners find java hard and hate it and go to Python

[@adityaparab4314]

Trust me I am not a guru even when I started using Java it felt too long although spending time in it makes you comfortable with the syntax. I agree with you that this prevents a lot of new entry level developers from using java.@@LauwaliIsaDk

main issue is if companies will actually adopt these newer Java version's since many are still stuck using Java 8🙃

100 years from now and Java 8 will still be studied but engineers

[@erickjhormanromero6905]

Mmm I can't consider it as a issue, instead it's a good opportunity to spread the usage of Java and for that reason companies are trying to motivate the usage of the newest java version and require it for new projects. 😅😅😅

[@gersimuca]

I know some are adapting to Java 17, waiting for LTS next release

6:50 Answer: I really like Java in the way it is now. I think people who have a good understanding of OOP in Java won't have a problem in learning other programming languages. And Java is still one of the best programming language but for me it is no.1(perspective)

[@Dave2kool4skool]

Part of the update should have been to include System.out in the default libraries. That would have had a bigger impact just having to type println("") instead of the whole thing. Java's greatest strength is that it so ubiquitous and can run on anything from desktop to mobile. Java's greatest weakness is that it is so ubiquitous and can run on anything causing so much general unnecessary syntax for what you want to do.

[@Urbaez22]

You always can use just out.println("");, by declaring PrintStream out = System.out; I do that all the time for basic Java use or single Class "projects"..

[@pulkitgirdhar3416]

Actually i encountered same in previous version too, I was working in VS code and it directly worked. Even my teacher was shocked to see that.

[@cipanmandul]

yes. that feature is really important for someone new to programming and Java. One of the main reason for most of beginner demotivated to continue to learn Java as a tool to learn programming is because of that boilerplate. OOP is not something easy to grasp if you are a beginner.

[@huyphuoctran6645]

100% agreed with you, I am a fan of Java and I love the way it is. Java is Java, it's robust because of its legacy, please don't change Java to become other stupid languages.

[@erichhc9698]

but you are talking about a change, there are going to be several changes in java 21 like virtual threads etc.

[@edgardcz]

I think this is good for the Java world, it means java keeps evolving with the new trends but (and a very important BUT) it keeps the compatibility, so it doesn't break your code base even if is old. You know the saying, slow but steady wins the race!

[@bootcamprag]

This sort of disrupts some of the concepts of OOP and access level for the static class when executing your application. Those new to the java language may not know this intuitively.

[@isaac80745]

I think Java is ok where it is at now and still useful to create full stack apps. They can improve the speed and amount of cpu it uses up when setting an application up.

[@davidblbulyan3077]

This is not boilerplate for me, because I just create class and than type "psvm" and press enter

[@lilivier]

Yeah people are just too lazy to learn how to use their IDE efficiently. They prefer to lose time complaining about boilerplate code while they could just spent time learning their IDE 🙃

[@silientlips]

We have to adapt it because the only constant is change. This is similar to C#, which changed the syntax to remove boilerplate.

[@jonelocker4142]

To me the old version just looks cooler. I don't see it as any game changer thing, so for me it's just a decoration. I don't want java to become kotlin. The cool thing about kotlin that it's kotlin. I want java to be java and not something else. The syntax looks really pretty and i would like it to stay that way. On the other hand progress is good too, so if java will actually evolve like a pcokmon i don't really mind.

[@xkript_padcast]

You motivated me to learn and understand JVM flow, thank you very much🖐

[@furkatlapasov5346]

The most anticipated feature for me is virtual threads

[@isaac80745]

True that would be awesome to play around with. It makes it easier than before.

[@flaviu-vanca]

Im not sure how this is going to work but you still need to learn about modifiers, classes, static vs instance, parameters. My point is why not get rich flavour at the beginning than getting just a little flavour and add a bit more along the way. I do think it will make the students understand java easier by removing lines of code. There are a tone of courses and videos that teaches java but most are so bad created that if you complete some of them you retain very little. I had access to Oracle's java se11 and I think it was very poorely designed comparing to other courses. Amigoscode has some very interesting videos on youtube. I am watching this channel for ah while, I didnt purchase any of hes courses but I strongly believe they are teaching the right way, specially the java language. At the end of the day it's not who is teaching but how is taught 😉.

[@martinsoluwaseunjojolola2042]

I love the old way

[@narebinhaa]

The thing that I loved in Kotlin was the way it uses getter and setter. Maybe java could do something similar to use less code without the need of lombok

[@julianjupiter5890]

Use records.

[@Y-wx6th]

Can you create a video about Maven ?

[@Dalendrion]

Java before 21: "Everything is in a class." Java 21: "Everything is in a class, except main()..." If they want simplicity for students, this isn't it. It seems like a tradeoff.

[@kendrickwilson454]

I think it is a great feature for newcomers..... It should have been around years ago..... One thing I don't like is the naming conventions of the past that seem to have gone by the waste side.....

[@talatelbeick6829]

It's nice to be able to define a function (method without class) yeah java developers for decades know only methods and not functions. And I don't really read about the new version but let's hope that we don't have only this function. Don't complain I'm OOP guy, but sometimes I need to have a simple function .

[@DouglasWhitcomb]

Great channel! Please let us know, which mic are you using?

[@jmainex]

Honestly this new change wouldn’t matter , Java is still awesome

[@Luis-sq4vr]

Hi Nelson thanks for this tutorial, I have one question. is there the option subtitle for your courses of pay? I would like buy any course of testing with junit but my english is basic.

[@SoutParl]

I think it's a good change, despite being small.

[@Techiesse]

I think there's other stuff the language can evolve that will make real difference (type inference for example).

[@guitarman813]

If Java 21 becomes the new norm, that will save a lot of time typing a main method. The method signature reminds me of C/C++.

[@zefalien1413]

In spring boot application, u have one main method (obviously) Real life projects are not coding assignemnts where u do each task in their own main method. You have one application with one starting point (main) and thats it. So what time is being saved?

[@AyderRoman]

Can we write our custom methods not creating class?But I think it's only allowed for the main() method because we will lose the static keyword idea

[@julianjupiter5890]

You can create instance methods other than main.

[@rahulsingh6077]

Ohh.. we have a new update in java (start roasting java midway)

[@saikrishna4661]

why don't you create a simple weather report restAPI , that would be helpful for the beginners to kick start.

[@illiamytchenko2200]

I think because of all existing tutorials use psvm this feature will be unused even for beginners

[@RicardoSilvaTripcall]

Even though Java has now a shorter release pace (every 6 months) it does still slow to release new or meaningful features ... lots of features still in preview for a long time, so in the end, you still have to wait 2, 3, 4 years for the feature to be PROD ready. Other issue is how new features are prioritize for implementation ... like this one on the video ... as Nelson said, they are trying to turn Java into something in the middle of Kotlin and Scala ... With the advent of containers, the JVM per se is also becoming needless ... Let's see what the future holds for Java ...

[@luismpcunha]

Mostly only cloud software will run in containers, there's a lot of java in mobile devices, in fridges and other home appliances, IoT and multi-platform desktop apps. The JVM will be a necessity for a long time

[@neociber24]

IMO for a language to grow it need to be simple that's why the beginners have been moved to Python and Javascript which also should mean more profesionals using those languages.

Leave java as java, leave python as python, leave kotlin as kotlin. Don't mix them with each other. Java is perfect language I think, don't touch it. It has everything already, don't modify it. Don't think about beginners, they will learn java don't worry about that. Don't, don't, don't.

To me this looks like a compromise towards the haters who can't stop taking their cracks at the Python (or whatever) vs Java print-your-line-to-console project, falling over each other in pointing to that Java verbosity, while probably not even realising Java needs this only once per project. Never compromise towards haters. They just feel vindicated and continue. No, this feature feels useless to me.

[@aoxog741]

is this your beard i thought it is a mask in your thumbnail 🤣

[@Coll.Ove14]

So you want to learn how to drive? Ok cool. two choices you have 1.) Learn Automatic and don't bother to understand what is in your car bonnet, how to change a tyre etc. 2.) Learn Manual, so you have a deeper understanding on how the gear works. Also learn how to change a tyre and be able to communicate what is wrong with your car to others as you know the basic level of car engines. Which person will excel at a profession about car mechanics if they so choose?? I feel Java should remain as verbose, as descriptive and the least implicit of all languages. Its rough and tumble, I know. But you conquar Java, you have won 80% in other programming languages out there.
