C++23, the upcoming version of the C++ programming language set to be finalized in 2023, is poised to introduce several important changes aimed at improving the language’s performance and usability. One of the most anticipated features is the addition of module support, which will significantly enhance compilation speed and code organization. For years, C++ developers have struggled with the inefficiencies of header files and the preprocessor. By introducing modules, C++23 eliminates the need for the traditional .h/.cpp file distinction, simplifying the source code and allowing for faster, more efficient builds. The inclusion of modules is expected to be one of…

ASP.NET Core 6 introduces a simplified hosting model that significantly reduces the complexity of building web APIs. This new approach allows developers to implement lightweight APIs with fewer dependencies and less boilerplate code. The streamlined process makes it easier to get applications up and running quickly, without the overhead of traditional setups. In the world of modern web development, time efficiency and minimal configuration are key, and minimal APIs in ASP.NET Core 6 address these needs while maintaining the flexibility and power that developers expect from the platform. In a previous article, we covered the basics of getting started with…

As the field of data science becomes more integrated into businesses across all industries, the skills and tools required are expanding. Netflix’s Christine Doig, who directs innovation for personalized experiences, reflects on the evolution of the data science role at the company, noting that it’s no longer confined to a specific team but has permeated the entire organization. This shift is not unique to Netflix—across industries, data science is being embraced to optimize operations, enhance user experiences, and support decision-making. From product management to marketing, the demand for data-driven insights is growing, leading organizations to look for tools that can…

For nearly two decades, JavaScript has been the sole programming language available natively in web browsers. While other languages like Java and Flash’s ActionScript once held prominence, the decline of third-party binary plug-ins has eliminated them from the web development landscape. Even newer languages like CoffeeScript simply compile down to JavaScript for execution in the browser. As a result, JavaScript has become the de facto standard for client-side web development, shaping how developers create interactive websites and applications. However, a game-changing technology has emerged: WebAssembly (often abbreviated as Wasm). WebAssembly is a compact, fast binary format designed to bring near-native…

Eclipse Foundation Launches New Marketplace for Java Binaries, Challenging Oracle’s Dominance In a significant move for the Java development community, the Eclipse Foundation has introduced an online marketplace aimed at offering developers easy access to Java binaries from various sources. This new platform, developed in collaboration with the Adoptium Working Group, is set to disrupt the market by providing certified Java Standard Edition (SE) binaries built on OpenJDK, an open-source implementation of the Java Platform, Standard Edition. With the launch of the Adoptium Marketplace, Eclipse is positioning itself as a key player in the Java ecosystem, offering developers more choices…

12 Key Java Enhancement Proposals Shaping the Future of Java Java’s evolution is guided through the Java Community Process (JCP) and Java Enhancement Proposals (JEPs), which collectively steer the language’s development and introduce new features. The JEP process plays a critical role in ensuring that Java remains relevant and adapts to modern programming needs. As the JDK 24 release approaches, several new JEPs are poised to impact the language and platform, highlighting the ongoing transformation of the Java ecosystem. These proposals range from minor improvements to major shifts in how Java applications will be developed and executed. The JEP process…

OpenJDK Proposal Aims to Introduce API for Processing Java Class Files A new proposal within the Java community seeks to introduce an API specifically designed for processing Java class files. This initiative aims to address longstanding challenges with class file manipulation, offering developers an official and standardized library for parsing, generating, and transforming Java class files. Initially, this classfile API would serve as an internal replacement for the ASM framework, which is currently used for bytecode manipulation in Java. The proposal suggests that ASM could eventually be phased out entirely from the JDK, paving the way for a more integrated…

Rust Leads the Way as Most Popular Language for WebAssembly, Survey Shows According to a recent survey, Rust has emerged as the most widely used language for WebAssembly (Wasm) development. The survey, conducted by software consulting firm Scott Logic, highlights the growing adoption of WebAssembly and Rust’s central role in its ecosystem. The report, The State of WebAssembly 2022, was published on June 20 and is based on feedback from 299 application developers. When asked which programming language they use for WebAssembly development, 45% of respondents indicated that they either frequently or occasionally use Rust, reinforcing its dominance in the…

Microsoft’s Ongoing Struggle with Open Source: Balancing Profit and Community Miguel de Icaza, a developer with deep roots in open source and a history of working within the Microsoft ecosystem, has voiced strong criticism against the company’s recent moves in the open-source space. De Icaza’s grievances are particularly centered around Microsoft’s decision to introduce proprietary extensions into a once open-source project, which he views as a step backward for .NET and the larger open-source community. His concerns echo those of many who have watched Microsoft’s complex history with open source unfold, especially following incidents like last year’s issues with the…

Microsoft to Revamp C# Extension for Visual Studio Code with LSP Integration Microsoft is set to make a significant change to the C# extension for Visual Studio Code by transitioning to the Language Server Protocol (LSP). This overhaul will introduce a range of advanced capabilities to the C# extension, including support for proprietary features like IntelliSense and other closed-source functionalities. By adopting LSP, Microsoft aims to enhance the development experience while maintaining compatibility with open-source tools, as both the C# extension and its LSP implementations for C# and Razor will remain open source. The C# extension has traditionally been powered…
