There are big changes happening in the Java Community, and plenty of ways to get involved in driving the future of Java and the JVM. The Diabolical Developer’s Guide to Surviving Java 9================================================ Java 9 comes with a new modularity system (Jigsaw), restrictions on the use of internal libraries such as sun.misc.Unsafe, a new REPL (JShell), a change of the default garbage collector to G1, and much more. All of this combined means that Java 9 is potentially the most groundbreaking release since Java 5 introduced generics. In this session, the Diabolical Developer presents a pragmatic guide to migrating your apps to Java 9 and how to avoid the common pitfalls. He covers how to still gain access to those restricted internal libraries, how to deal with the performance impact of moving to G1, how to split your app to use both the classpath approach and the new modularization approach, and more. Leave this session with the confidence to move to Java 9!

Over that time he has built electronic trading and derivatives solutions in C++ and C#, for Unix, Windows and Linux.
