Compile and execute a JDK preview feature with Maven

问题

With JDK/12 EarlyAccess Build 10, the JEP-325 Switch Expressions has been integrated as a preview feature in the JDK. A sample code for the expressions (as in the JEP as well):

Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
Day day = Day.valueOf(scanner.next());
switch (day) {
    case MONDAY, TUESDAY -> System.out.println("Back to work.") ;
    case WEDNESDAY -> System.out.println("Wait for the end of week...") ;
    case THURSDAY,FRIDAY -> System.out.println("Plan for the weekend?");
    case SATURDAY, SUNDAY -> System.out.println("Enjoy the holiday!");
}

where Day being an enum as

public enum Day {
    MONDAY, TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, FRIDAY, SATURDAY, SUNDAY
}

The Preview Language and VM Features JEP-12 already elaborate how a feature can be enabled during compile and runtime using javac and java.

How can one try out this feature using Maven?

Step 1

One can make use of the following maven configurations to compile the code using the --enable-preview along with --release 12( or 13) argument.

<build>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>3.8.0</version>
            <configuration>
                <release>12</release> <!-- <release>13</release> -->
                <compilerArgs>--enable-preview</compilerArgs>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>
        <!-- This is just to make sure the class is set as main class to execute from the jar-->
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-shade-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>3.1.0</version>
            <executions>
                <execution>
                    <phase>package</phase>
                    <goals>
                        <goal>shade</goal>
                    </goals>
                    <configuration>
                        <transformers>
                            <transformer
                                    implementation="org.apache.maven.plugins.shade.resource.ServicesResourceTransformer"/>
                            <transformer
                                    implementation="org.apache.maven.plugins.shade.resource.ManifestResourceTransformer">
                                <mainClass>edu.forty.bits.expression.SwitchExpressions</mainClass>
                            </transformer>
                        </transformers>
                    </configuration>
                </execution>
            </executions>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>

Note:- I had to also ensure on my MacOS that my ~/.mavenrc file was configured to mark java 13 as the default java configured for maven.

Step 2

Execute the maven command to build the jar from the module classes

mvn clean verify

Step 3

Use the command line to execute the main class of the jar created in the previous step as :

java --enable-preview -jar target/forty-bits-of-java-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

the last argument is the path to the jar built by maven.

This produces the output as expected as:

To enable preview feature you must define --enable-preview in pom.xml under compilerArgs

in below I mention how to enable preview feature with java 13.

<build>
  <plugins>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>3.8.0</version>
      <configuration>
        <release>13</release>
        <compilerArgs>
          --enable-preview
        </compilerArgs>
      </configuration>
    </plugin>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
      <version>3.0.0-M3</version>
      <configuration>
        <argLine>--enable-preview</argLine>
      </configuration>
    </plugin>
  </plugins>
 </build>
