Java Next - From Amber to Loom, from Panama to Valhalla by Nicolai Parlog

Java's four big projects are entering the home stretch: Amber and Panama have already incubated, previewed, and even finalized some features, Loom and Valhalla are on track to follow soon. Time to take a closer look at how...

- Project Amber makes the language more expressive and ready for today's and tomorrow's problems
- Project Panama cuts through the isthmus separating Java from native code
- Project Loom enables hassle-free and efficient structured concurrency
- Project Valhalla mends the rift in Java's type system and improves performance

After this talk, you will know what to expect from Java in the next few years.

I don't understand the difference between ArrayList<int> and int[].
