by David Delabassee on December 13, 2022

The OpenJDK Quality Group promotes the testing of FOSS projects with OpenJDK early-access builds as a way to improve the overall quality of the release. This heads-up is part of a Quality Outreach update sent to the projects involved. To learn more about the program and how to join, please check the Quality Outreach wiki page.

Valhalla: LW4 Early-Access Builds

Valhalla LW4 early-access builds have been published at https://jdk.java.net/valhalla/, those builds are primarily focused on implementing the Value Objects JEP draft. For additional details on those EA builds, make sure to read the LW4 release notes. In addition, the ' Java Value Objects in Action - JEP Café' below provides a more hands-on introduction to Value Object.

Interested developers are encouraged to explore the performance and migration impact of value objects on their applications, and to provide feedback to the valhalla-dev mailing list.
