Welcome to the latest OpenJDK Quality Outreach update!
Last week was busy as we released both Java 20 and JavaFX 20. To
celebrate the launch, we hosted a live event focused on Java 20, i.e.
Level Up Java Day. All the sessions recordings will be made available
shortly on the YouTube Java channel.
Some recent events shown us that it is useful to conduct tests using the
latest early-access OpenJDK builds. This will benefit the OpenJDK
codebase but also your own codebase. Sometime, a failure could be due to
an actual regression introduced in OpenJDK. In that case, we obviously
want to hear about it while we can still address it. But sometime, a
failure could also be due to a subtle behaviour change… that works as
expected. Regardless of if it's a bug or a test that is now broken due
to a behaviour change, we want to hear from you. In the latter case, it
might also mean that we should probably communicate more about those
changes even if they might seem subtle. On that note, please make sure
to check all the 2 Heads-Up below: "Support for Unicode CLDR Version 42"
and "New network interface names on Windows".
So please, let us know if you observe anything using the latest
early-access builds of JDK 21.
## Heads-Up - JDK 20 - Support for Unicode CLDR Version 42
The JDK's locale data is based on the Unicode Consortium's Unicode
Common Locale Data Repository (CLDR). As mentioned in the December 2022
Quality Outreach newsletter [1], JDK 20 upgraded CLDR [2] to version 42
[3], which was released in October 2022. This version includes a "more
sophisticated handling of spaces" [4] that replaces regular spaces with
non-breaking spaces (NBSP / `\u00A0`) or narrow non-breaking spaces
(NNBSP / `\u202F`):
- in time formats between `a` and time
- in unit formats between {0} and unit
- in Cyrillic date formats before year marker such as `г`
Other noticeable changes include:
* " at " is no longer used for standard date/time format ’ [5]
* fix first day of week info for China (CN) [6]
* Japanese: Support numbers up to 9999京 [7]
As a consequence, production and test code that produces or parses
locale-dependent strings like formatted dates and times may change
behavior in potentially breaking ways (e.g. when a handcrafted datetime
string with a regular space is parsed, but the parser now expects an
NBSP or NNBSP). Issues can be hard to analyze because expected and
actual strings look very similar or even identical in various text
representations. To detect and fix these issues, make sure to use a text
editor that displays different kinds of spaces differently.
If the required fixes can't be implemented when upgrading to JDK 20,
consider using the JVM argument `-Djava.locale.providers=COMPAT` to use
legacy locale data. Note that this limits some locale-related
functionality and treat it as a temporary workaround, not a proper
solution. Moreover, the `COMPAT` option will be eventually removed in
the future.
It is also important to keep in mind that this kind of locale data
evolves regularly so programs parsing/composing the locale data by
themselves should be routinely checked with each JDK release.

## Heads-Up - JDK 21 - New network interface names on Windows
Network Names that the JDK assigns to network interfaces on Windows are
changing in JDK 21 [8].
The JDK historically synthesized names for network interfaces on
Windows. This has changed to use the names assigned by the Windows
operating system. For example, the JDK may have historically assigned a
name such as “eth0” for an ethernet interface and “lo” for the loopback.
The equivalent names that Windows assigns may be names such as
“ethernet_32768” and “loopback_0".
This change may impact code that does a lookup of network interfaces
with the `NetworkInterace.getByName(String name)` method. It also may
also be surprising to code that enumerates all network interfaces with
the `NetworkInterfaces.networkInterfaces()` or
`NetworkInterface.getNetworkInterfaces()` methods as the names of the
network interfaces will look different to previous releases. Depending
on configuration, it is possible that enumerating all network interfaces
will enumerate network interfaces that weren’t previously enumerated
because they didn’t have an Internet Protocol address assigned. The
display name returned by `NetworkInterface::getDisplayName` has not
changed so this should facilitate the identification of network
interfaces when using Windows native tools.

## JDK 20 General Availability
JDK 20, the reference implementation of Java 20, is now Generally
Available [9]. The GA builds 36 are available [10], and are provided
under the GNU General Public License v2, with the Classpath Exception.
The Release Notes are available here [11] and the javadocs here [12].
This release includes 7 JEPs, all in various stages of incubation and
preview:
- JEP 429: Scoped Values (Incubator)
- JEP 432: Record Patterns (2nd Preview)
- JEP 433: Pattern Matching for switch (4th Preview)
- JEP 434: Foreign Function & Memory API (2nd Preview)
- JEP 436: Virtual Threads (2nd Preview)
- JEP 437: Structured Concurrency (2nd Incubator)
along with hundreds of smaller enhancements and thousands of bug fixes.
Thank you to everyone who contributed to this release, including
participants in this program who provided feedback on JDK 20.

## JavaFX 20 General Availability
Open-source builds of JavaFX 20 are now Generally Available [13], under
the GNU General Public License, version 2, with the Classpath Exception.
The JavaFX runtime is delivered as an SDK and as a set of jmods for each
platform. You can use the SDK to compile and run JavaFX applications.
You can use the jmods with jlink to create a JDK that includes the
JavaFX modules, and optionally, your modular application. JavaFX 20 is
designed to work with JDK 20, but it is known to work with JDK 17 and
later versions.
The Release Notes are available here [14], JavaFX 20 API javadocs are
also available [15].

## JDK 21 Early-Access builds
The latest early-access, i.e., builds 15 are available [16], and are
