The Java Council
summary
A live panel releases a community productivity report based on 2,000+ respondents and reports IntelliJ edging out Eclipse while NetBeans keeps a solid niche, Java 8 dominating adoption (~80% in 2017), and Spring used by about 46% of teams; respondents cite project architecture as the biggest productivity blocker (roughly one third) and 51% say IDE choice is fixed by company policy. Roadmap notes include a six‑month OpenJDK cadence, Oracle open‑sourcing Flight Recorder/Mission Control, IBM open‑sourcing OpenJ9, and language moves like var added (restricted type name), pattern matching, value types and Project Loom.
