Java 17核心新特性概览
什么是Java 17
Java 17是Oracle公司发布的第四个LTS版本，具有长期支持和稳定性特点。它包含了从Java 14到Java 16的所有预览特性，并将一些重要的特性正式引入到标准语言中。
特性演进路径
Java 17的特性发展经历了以下几个阶段：
- Java 14: Pattern Matching for instanceof（预览）
- Java 15: Sealed Classes（预览）
- Java 16: Pattern Matching for switch（预览）
- Java 17: Pattern Matching for switch正式化，Sealed Classes稳定化
Pattern Matching（模式匹配）详解
模式匹配概述
模式匹配是一种编程语言特性，允许在条件判断中同时进行类型检查和值提取。在Java 17中，模式匹配得到了重大改进，特别是在switch表达式中的应用。
instanceof模式匹配
传统的instanceof操作符只能进行类型检查，而Java 17引入了更强大的模式匹配功能：
// Java 16及之前版本
public static String handleObject(Object obj) {
if (obj instanceof String) {
String str = (String) obj;
return str.toUpperCase();
} else if (obj instanceof Integer) {
Integer num = (Integer) obj;
return String.valueOf(num * 2);
}
return "Unknown";
}
// Java 17模式匹配
public static String handleObjectNew(Object obj) {
if (obj instanceof String str) {
return str.toUpperCase();
} else if (obj instanceof Integer num) {
return String.valueOf(num * 2);
}
return "Unknown";
}
switch表达式中的模式匹配
Java 17进一步增强了switch表达式的功能，支持模式匹配：
// Java 17之前版本的switch处理
public static int calculateValue(Object obj) {
if (obj instanceof Integer i) {
return i * 2;
} else if (obj instanceof String s) {
return s.length();
} else if (obj instanceof Double d) {
return (int) (d * 10);
}
return 0;
}
// Java 17 switch表达式模式匹配
public static int calculateValueNew(Object obj) {
return switch (obj) {
case Integer i -> i * 2;
case String s -> s.length();
case Double d -> (int) (d * 10);
default -> 0;
};
}
// 复杂对象的模式匹配
public static String processShape(Shape shape) {
return switch (shape) {
case Circle c when c.radius() > 10 -> "Large circle";
case Rectangle r when r.width() * r.height() > 100 -> "Large rectangle";
case Circle c -> "Small circle";
case Rectangle r -> "Small rectangle";
case null -> "Null shape";
default -> "Unknown shape";
};
}
// 定义示例类
abstract class Shape {
abstract double area();
}
class Circle extends Shape {
private final double radius;
public Circle(double radius) {
this.radius = radius;
}
public double radius() { return radius; }
@Override
double area() { return Math.PI * radius * radius; }
}
class Rectangle extends Shape {
private final double width, height;
public Rectangle(double width, double height) {
this.width = width;
this.height = height;
}
public double width() { return width; }
public double height() { return height; }
@Override
double area() { return width * height; }
}
多值模式匹配
Java 17还支持更复杂的模式匹配，包括类型和值的组合：
// 复合模式匹配示例
public static String analyzeValue(Object obj) {
return switch (obj) {
case Integer i when i > 0 && i < 10 -> "Small positive integer";
case Integer i when i >= 10 -> "Large integer";
case String s when s.isEmpty() -> "Empty string";
case String s when s.length() > 100 -> "Very long string";
case List<?> list when list.isEmpty() -> "Empty list";
case List<?> list when list.size() > 10 -> "Large list";
case null -> "Null value";
case Object o -> "Other object";
};
}
// 使用record的模式匹配
record Point(int x, int y) {}
record ColorPoint(int x, int y, String color) extends Point(x, y) {}
public static String processPoint(Object obj) {
return switch (obj) {
case Point(int x, int y) when x > 0 && y > 0 -> "Positive quadrant";
case Point(int x, int y) when x < 0 && y < 0 -> "Negative quadrant";
case ColorPoint(int x, int y, String color) when color.equals("red") -> "Red point";
case Point p -> "Other point";
};
}
Records（记录类）深度解析
记录类的基本概念
Records是Java 17引入的一种新的类类型，用于创建不可变的数据载体。它们自动提供了构造函数、getter方法、equals、hashCode和toString等常用方法。
// 传统POJO实现
public class Person {
private final String name;
private final int age;
public Person(String name, int age) {
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
}
public String name() {
return name;
}
public int age() {
return age;
}
@Override
public boolean equals(Object o) {
if (this == o) return true;
if (o == null || getClass() != o.getClass()) return false;
Person person = (Person) o;
return age == person.age && Objects.equals(name, person.name);
}
@Override
public int hashCode() {
return Objects.hash(name, age);
}
@Override
public String toString() {
return "Person{name='" + name + "', age=" + age + '}';
}
}
// Java 17 Records实现
public record PersonRecord(String name, int age) {
// 可以添加自定义方法和构造器
public PersonRecord {
if (age < 0) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Age cannot be negative");
}
}
public String displayName() {
return "Name: " + name;
}
}
Records的高级特性
隐式构造器和显式构造器
// 隐式构造器 - 自动创建公共构造器
public record Point(double x, double y) {}
// 显式构造器 - 可以添加验证逻辑
public record ValidatedPoint(double x, double y) {
public ValidatedPoint {
if (x < 0 || y < 0) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Coordinates must be non-negative");
}
}
// 额外的计算方法
public double distanceFromOrigin() {
return Math.sqrt(x * x + y * y);
}
}
// 可以有多个构造器
public record ComplexNumber(double real, double imaginary) {
public ComplexNumber {
if (Double.isNaN(real) || Double.isNaN(imaginary)) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Real and imaginary parts must be valid numbers");
}
}
// 额外的构造器
public ComplexNumber(double real) {
this(real, 0.0);
}
public ComplexNumber add(ComplexNumber other) {
return new ComplexNumber(this.real + other.real, this.imaginary + other.imaginary);
}
}
Records与继承
// 基础Record
public record Coordinates(double latitude, double longitude) {}
// 扩展Record（不支持继承，但可以实现接口）
public record Location(String name, double latitude, double longitude)
implements Comparable<Location> {
public Location {
if (latitude < -90 || latitude > 90) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Latitude must be between -90 and 90");
}
if (longitude < -180 || longitude > 180) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Longitude must be between -180 and 180");
}
}
@Override
public int compareTo(Location other) {
return name.compareTo(other.name);
}
// 计算距离的方法
public double distanceTo(Location other) {
// 简化的计算方法
return Math.sqrt(Math.pow(this.latitude - other.latitude, 2) +
Math.pow(this.longitude - other.longitude, 2));
}
}
Records的实用场景
// API响应对象
public record ApiResponse<T>(boolean success, T data, String message) {
public static <T> ApiResponse<T> success(T data) {
return new ApiResponse<>(true, data, "Operation successful");
}
public static <T> ApiResponse<T> error(String message) {
return new ApiResponse<>(false, null, message);
}
}
// 配置对象
public record DatabaseConfig(String url, String username, String password, int timeout) {
public DatabaseConfig {
if (url == null || url.isEmpty()) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Database URL cannot be null or empty");
}
if (timeout <= 0) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Timeout must be positive");
}
}
public String getConnectionString() {
return url + "?user=" + username + "&timeout=" + timeout;
}
}
// 处理API响应的示例
public class ApiHandler {
public void processResponse(ApiResponse<String> response) {
if (response.success()) {
System.out.println("Data: " + response.data());
} else {
System.err.println("Error: " + response.message());
}
}
}
Sealed Classes（密封类）详解
密封类的概念
Sealed Classes是Java 17引入的特性，允许开发者限制一个类或接口的子类。这有助于创建更安全、更可控的继承层次结构。
// 基础密封类
public sealed class Shape permits Circle, Rectangle, Triangle {
public abstract double area();
public abstract double perimeter();
}
// 允许的子类
public final class Circle extends Shape {
private final double radius;
public Circle(double radius) {
this.radius = radius;
}
@Override
public double area() {
return Math.PI * radius * radius;
}
@Override
public double perimeter() {
return 2 * Math.PI * radius;
}
}
public final class Rectangle extends Shape {
private final double width, height;
public Rectangle(double width, double height) {
this.width = width;
this.height = height;
}
@Override
public double area() {
return width * height;
}
@Override
public double perimeter() {
return 2 * (width + height);
}
}
public final class Triangle extends Shape {
private final double base, height;
public Triangle(double base, double height) {
this.base = base;
this.height = height;
}
@Override
public double area() {
return 0.5 * base * height;
}
@Override
public double perimeter() {
// 简化计算，假设为等腰三角形
return base + 2 * Math.sqrt((base/2) * (base/2) + height * height);
}
}
密封类的访问修饰符
// 使用不同的访问修饰符
public sealed class Animal permits Dog, Cat, Bird {
public abstract void makeSound();
}
// 允许的子类
public final class Dog extends Animal {
@Override
public void makeSound() {
System.out.println("Woof!");
}
}
public final class Cat extends Animal {
@Override
public void makeSound() {
System.out.println("Meow!");
}
}
// 使用非final修饰符的子类
public non-sealed class Bird extends Animal {
@Override
public void makeSound() {
System.out.println("Tweet!");
}
// Bird可以被进一步继承
public static class Parrot extends Bird {
@Override
public void makeSound() {
System.out.println("Squawk!");
}
}
}
// 严格密封的子类（只能在同一个包内）
sealed class Pet permits Cat, Dog {
public abstract String getName();
}
密封类的实际应用
// 处理订单状态的密封类
public sealed class OrderStatus permits Pending, Processing, Shipped, Delivered, Cancelled {
public abstract boolean isCompleted();
public abstract String getDescription();
}
public final class Pending extends OrderStatus {
@Override
public boolean isCompleted() {
return false;
}
@Override
public String getDescription() {
return "Order is pending";
}
}
public final class Processing extends OrderStatus {
@Override
public boolean isCompleted() {
return false;
}
@Override
public String getDescription() {
return "Order is being processed";
}
}
public final class Shipped extends OrderStatus {
@Override
public boolean isCompleted() {
return false;
}
@Override
public String getDescription() {
return "Order has been shipped";
}
}
public final class Delivered extends OrderStatus {
@Override
public boolean isCompleted() {
return true;
}
@Override
public String getDescription() {
return "Order has been delivered";
}
}
public final class Cancelled extends OrderStatus {
@Override
public boolean isCompleted() {
return true;
}
@Override
public String getDescription() {
return "Order has been cancelled";
}
}
// 使用密封类处理订单状态
public class OrderProcessor {
public void processOrder(OrderStatus status) {
switch (status) {
case Pending p -> System.out.println("Processing pending order: " + p.getDescription());
case Processing p -> System.out.println("Processing order: " + p.getDescription());
case Shipped s -> System.out.println("Shipping order: " + s.getDescription());
case Delivered d -> System.out.println("Delivering order: " + d.getDescription());
case Cancelled c -> System.out.println("Cancelling order: " + c.getDescription());
default -> throw new IllegalStateException("Unexpected order status: " + status);
}
}
}
Pattern Matching与Records的结合使用
复合类型处理
// 结合使用模式匹配和records
public record Point2D(double x, double y) {}
public record ColorPoint2D(double x, double y, String color) extends Point2D(x, y) {}
public class ShapeProcessor {
public static void processShape(Object shape) {
// 模式匹配结合records
switch (shape) {
case Point2D p when p.x() > 0 && p.y() > 0 ->
System.out.println("Positive quadrant point: (" + p.x() + ", " + p.y() + ")");
case ColorPoint2D cp when cp.color().equals("red") ->
System.out.println("Red color point at: (" + cp.x() + ", " + cp.y() + ")");
case Point2D p ->
System.out.println("Point at: (" + p.x() + ", " + p.y() + ")");
default -> System.out.println("Unknown shape");
}
}
}
集合中的模式匹配
// 处理包含records的集合
public class DataProcessor {
public static void processCollection(List<Object> data) {
for (Object item : data) {
switch (item) {
case PersonRecord(String name, int age) when age >= 18 ->
System.out.println("Adult: " + name + " (" + age + ")");
case PersonRecord(String name, int age) when age < 18 ->
System.out.println("Minor: " + name + " (" + age + ")");
case String s when s.length() > 10 ->
System.out.println("Long string: " + s);
case Integer i when i > 100 ->
System.out.println("Large number: " + i);
default -> System.out.println("Other item");
}
}
}
public static void processShapes(List<Shape> shapes) {
for (Shape shape : shapes) {
// 模式匹配处理不同类型的形状
if (shape instanceof Circle c) {
System.out.println("Circle with radius " + c.radius());
} else if (shape instanceof Rectangle r) {
System.out.println("Rectangle: " + r.width() + " x " + r.height());
}
}
}
}
性能优化与最佳实践
模式匹配性能考虑
// 性能优化示例
public class PatternMatchingOptimization {
// 避免重复计算的模式匹配
public static int processValue(Object obj) {
return switch (obj) {
case String s when s.length() > 100 -> {
// 只计算一次，避免多次调用length()
int len = s.length();
yield len * 2;
}
case List<?> list when list.size() > 50 -> {
int size = list.size();
yield size * 3;
}
case Integer i -> i * 2;
default -> 0;
};
}
// 使用模式匹配的性能对比
public static String handleData(Object data) {
// 传统方式
if (data instanceof String s) {
return s.toUpperCase();
} else if (data instanceof Integer i) {
return String.valueOf(i * 2);
} else if (data instanceof Double d) {
return String.valueOf(d + 10.0);
}
return "Unknown";
}
// 模式匹配方式（更简洁）
public static String handleDataNew(Object data) {
return switch (data) {
case String s -> s.toUpperCase();
case Integer i -> String.valueOf(i * 2);
case Double d -> String.valueOf(d + 10.0);
default -> "Unknown";
};
}
}
Records的最佳实践
// Records最佳实践示例
public record BankAccount(String accountNumber, double balance, String ownerName) {
// 验证构造器
public BankAccount {
if (accountNumber == null || accountNumber.isEmpty()) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Account number cannot be null or empty");
}
if (balance < 0) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Balance cannot be negative");
}
if (ownerName == null || ownerName.trim().isEmpty()) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Owner name cannot be null or empty");
}
}
// 只读属性，不提供setter
public double getBalance() {
return balance;
}
// 业务方法
public boolean isOverdrawn() {
return balance < 0;
}
public BankAccount deposit(double amount) {
if (amount <= 0) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Deposit amount must be positive");
}
return new BankAccount(accountNumber, balance + amount, ownerName);
}
public BankAccount withdraw(double amount) {
if (amount <= 0) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Withdrawal amount must be positive");
}
if (balance - amount < 0) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Insufficient funds");
}
return new BankAccount(accountNumber, balance - amount, ownerName);
}
// 实现接口
@Override
public String toString() {
return String.format("BankAccount{accountNumber='%s', balance=%.2f, ownerName='%s'}",
accountNumber, balance, ownerName);
}
@Override
public boolean equals(Object obj) {
if (this == obj) return true;
if (obj == null || getClass() != obj.getClass()) return false;
BankAccount that = (BankAccount) obj;
return Objects.equals(accountNumber, that.accountNumber);
}
@Override
public int hashCode() {
return Objects.hash(accountNumber);
}
}
编译器支持与工具集成
编译器优化
Java 17的模式匹配和records特性得到了编译器的深度优化：
// 编译器优化示例
public class CompilerOptimization {
// 模式匹配编译器会生成更高效的代码
public static int calculateValue(Object obj) {
return switch (obj) {
case Integer i -> i * 2;
case String s -> s.length();
case Double d -> (int) (d * 10);
default -> 0;
};
}
// Records编译器优化
public record OptimizedData(String name, int value) {
// 编译器会自动生成高效的equals、hashCode和toString方法
public String getFormattedValue() {
return String.format("%s: %d", name, value);
}
}
}
IDE支持
现代IDE对Java 17的新特性提供了良好的支持：
// IDE友好的代码示例
public class IDESupportExample {
// 智能提示和自动补全
public static void processRecordData(PersonRecord person) {
// IDE会自动识别records的字段
String name = person.name(); // 自动补全
int age = person.age(); // 自动补全
// 模式匹配的智能提示
if (person instanceof PersonRecord(String n, int a)) {
// IDE支持模式匹配的变量识别
System.out.println("Name: " + n + ", Age: " + a);
}
}
// 重构支持
public static void refactorExample() {
// 可以轻松地将普通类转换为records
// 编译器和IDE会提供重构建议
PersonRecord person = new PersonRecord("John", 30);
// 记录的解构模式匹配
switch (person) {
case PersonRecord(String name, int age) -> {
System.out.println("Name: " + name + ", Age: " + age);
}
}
}
}
实际项目应用案例
企业级应用中的使用
// 企业级应用中的实际使用场景
public class EnterpriseApplication {
// 配置对象使用records
public record ApplicationConfig(
String name,
String version,
List<String> features,
boolean enabled
) {
public ApplicationConfig {
if (name == null || name.isEmpty()) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Application name cannot be null or empty");
}
if (version == null || version.isEmpty()) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Version cannot be null or empty");
}
}
public boolean hasFeature(String feature) {
return features != null && features.contains(feature);
}
}
// API响应使用records
public record ApiResponse<T>(
boolean success,
T data,
String message,
int code
) {
public static <T> ApiResponse<T> success(T data) {
return new ApiResponse<>(true, data, "Success", 200);
}
public static <T> ApiResponse<T> error(String message, int code) {
return new ApiResponse<>(false, null, message, code);
}
}
// 处理API响应
public void handleResponse(ApiResponse<String> response) {
switch (response) {
case ApiResponse(true, String data, String message, int code)
when code == 200 -> {
System.out.println("Success: " + data);
}
case ApiResponse(false, null, String message, int code)
when code >= 400 && code < 500 -> {
System.err.println("Client error: " + message);
}
case ApiResponse(false, null, String message, int code)
when code >= 500 -> {
System.err.println("Server error: " + message);
}
}
}
// 处理配置
public void processConfig(ApplicationConfig config) {
if (config.enabled()) {
System.out.println("Application " + config.name() + " version " + config.version() + " is enabled");
if (config.hasFeature("authentication")) {
System.out.println("Authentication feature is available");
}
}
}
}
数据处理管道
// 数据处理管道示例
public class DataPipeline {
// 处理不同类型的数据记录
public record RawData(String type, String content) {}
public record ProcessedData(String source, String result, long timestamp) {}
public static List<ProcessedData> processRawData(List<RawData> rawData) {
return rawData.stream()
.map(data -> switch (data.type()) {
case "JSON" -> new ProcessedData("JSON", processDataJson(data.content()), System.currentTimeMillis());
case "XML" -> new ProcessedData("XML", processDataXml(data.content()), System.currentTimeMillis());
case "CSV" -> new ProcessedData("CSV", processDataCsv(data.content()), System.currentTimeMillis());
default -> new ProcessedData("UNKNOWN", "Unknown type", System.currentTimeMillis());
})
.collect(Collectors.toList());
}
private static String processDataJson(String content) {
// JSON处理逻辑
return "Processed JSON: " + content;
}
private static String processDataXml(String content) {
// XML处理逻辑
return "Processed XML: " + content;
}
private static String processDataCsv(String content) {
// CSV处理逻辑
return "Processed CSV: " + content;
}
}
