java 8 new feature_JAVA8-feature and enhancement

特性1 - JAVA编程语言的加强

Lambda表达式,java 8的新编程语言特色,他可以让你把一个实列的实现当作一个方法参数参入， lambda表达式让你实例化一个 只含有1个方法的接口更加简洁

增加接口默认方法-并且兼容JDK老版本

注解加强

改善接口类型

支持方法参数反射

// JAVA8 自动帮你断言这个接口应该返回的泛型 Person对象命名为p 参数自己写实现方法

Person.processPersons(roster,(Person p) -> p.getAge() >= 1

&& p.getAge() <= 4, p -> p.printPerson());

Person.processPersonsWithFunction(

roster,

p -> p.getAge() >= 1

&& p.getAge() <= 4,

p -> p.getEmailAddress(),

email -> System.out.println(email)

);

roster.stream() .filter(

p -> p.getAge() >= 1

&& p.getAge() <= 4).map(p -> p.getEmailAddress())

.forEach(email1 -> System.out.println(email1));

增加一个新包 java.util.stream提供流式API 去支持函数式风格编程操作流中的每个元素

,这个streamAPI 继承在CollectionsApi 中， 它可以支持桶操作，比如并发的map-reduce 和有序流的转换操作

JAVA8包含一个精简版的Java SE平台的 可以保证不需要完整版的平台就可以部署和运行在一个小型设备上

* The `-parameters` option of the `javac` command can be used to store formal parameter names and enable the Reflection API to retrieve formal parameter names.

* The type rules for equality operators in the Java Language Specification (JLS) Section 15.21 are now correctly enforced by the `javac` command.

* The `javac` tool now has support for checking the content of `javadoc` comments for issues that could lead to various problems, such as invalid HTML or accessibility issues, in the files that are generated when `javadoc` is run. The feature is enabled by the new `-Xdoclint` option. For more details, see the output from running "`javac -X`". This feature is also available in the `javadoc` tool, and is enabled there by default.

* The `javac` tool now provides the ability to generate native headers, as needed. This removes the need to run the `javah` tool as a separate step in the build pipeline. The feature is enabled in `javac` by using the new `-h` option, which is used to specify a directory in which the header files should be written. Header files will be generated for any class which has either native methods, or constant fields annotated with a new annotation of type `java.lang.annotation.Native`.

* 特性8 javadoc 相关的优化提升 [Javadoc tool](http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/javadoc/whatsnew-8.html)

* The `javadoc` tool supports the new `DocTree` API that enables you to traverse Javadoc comments as abstract syntax trees.

* The `javadoc` tool supports the new Javadoc Access API that enables you to invoke the Javadoc tool directly from a Java application, without executing a new process. See the [javadoc what's new](http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/javadoc/whatsnew-8.html) page for more information.

* The `javadoc` tool now has support for checking the content of `javadoc` comments for issues that could lead to various problems, such as invalid HTML or accessibility issues, in the files that are generated when `javadoc` is run. The feature is enabled by default, and can also be controlled by the new `-Xdoclint` option. For more details, see the output from running "`javadoc -X`". This feature is also available in the `javac` tool, although it is not enabled by default there.

* Unicode Enhancements, including support for Unicode 6.2.0

* Adoption of Unicode CLDR Data and the java.locale.providers System Property

* New Calendar and Locale APIs

* Ability to Install a Custom Resource Bundle as an Extension

* For sandbox applets and Java Web Start applications, `URLPermission` is now used to allow connections back to the server from which they were started. `SocketPermission` is no longer granted.

* The Permissions attribute is required in the JAR file manifest of the main JAR file at all security levels.

特性11 Date-Time Package - a new set of packages that provide a comprehensive date-time model.

Methods have been added to the java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentHashMap class to support aggregate operations based on the newly added streams facility and lambda expressions.

ConcurrentHashMap类 支持聚合操作和lambda表达式

* Classes have been added to the `java.util.concurrent.atomic` package to support scalable updatable variables.

.

Hardware intrinsics were added to use Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). The UseAESand UseAESIntrinsics flags are available to enable the hardware-based AES intrinsics for Intel hardware. The hardware must be 2010 or newer Westmere hardware.

Note: AES intrinsics are only supported by the Server VM.

For example, to enable hardware AES, use the following flags:

-XX:+UseAES -XX:+UseAESIntrinsics

To disable hardware AES use the following flags:

-XX:-UseAES -XX:-UseAESIntrinsics

* Removal of PermGen.

* Default Methods in the Java Programming Language are supported by the byte code instructions for method invocation.
