Java News Roundup: Shenandoah GC, TeamCity CVE, A2A Java SDK, Camel, Gradle, GlassFish, Groovy
↗
A weekly Java roundup details the targeting of Shenandoah GC generational mode by default for JDK 28, delays to the JDK 27 release candidate, and several point releases addressing security vulnerabilities and features.
The shift to generational Shenandoah by default in JDK 28 will change garbage collection tuning for applications using that collector, while the JDK 27 release candidate delay shortens the feedback window for the upcoming release. Security patches in GlassFish and updates to libraries like A2A Java SDK and Gradle require immediate attention from teams maintaining those dependencies.
