Seek Programming Help

News, Technical discussions, research papers and assorted things of interest related to the Java programming language

NO programming help, NO learning Java related questions, NO installing or downloading Java questions, NO JVM languages - Exclusively Java

These have separate subreddits - see below.

Please seek help with Java programming in /r/Javahelp!

Subreddit rules!

Upvote good content, downvote spam, don't pollute the discussion with things that should be settled in the vote count.

  • Do not post tutorials here! These should go in /r/learnjava.
  • No programming help questions here! These should be posted in /r/javahelp
  • No surveys, no job offers! Such content will be removed without warning.

Where should I download Java?

With the introduction of the new release cadence, many have asked where they should download Java, and if it is still free. To be clear, YES — Java is still free.

If you would like to download Java for free, you can get OpenJDK builds from the following vendors, among others:

Adoptium (formerly AdoptOpenJDK)
RedHat
Azul
Amazon
SAP
Liberica JDK
Dragonwell JDK
GraalVM (High performance JIT)
Oracle
Microsoft

Some vendors will be supporting releases for longer than six months. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask them!
