JDK 9 is partitioned into sets of independent modules, which permits custom runtime capability to incorporate only required modules in our application, which offers assistance to diminish runtime size.
- Robust encapsulation and security: Bundles from the module can be expressly exposed if required by other modules. On the other hand, another module has to explicitly define ...
