JDK 14 - Early Access build 25 is available

[Ben Evans]

Hi Deepak,

Thanks for pushing out this EA build.

Unfortunately, I've had some problems using it. I interpreted your
release note to mean that Build 25 contained support for records.
However:

bevans$ javac --enable-preview -source 14 FXOrder.java
FXOrder.java:3: error: class, interface, or enum expected
public record FXOrder(int units, CurrencyPair pair, Side side, double
price, LocalDateTime sentAt, int ttl) {
       ^
FXOrder.java:4: error: class, interface, or enum expected
    public FXOrder {
           ^
FXOrder.java:7: error: class, interface, or enum expected
        }
        ^
FXOrder.java:10: error: class, interface, or enum expected
        }
        ^
FXOrder.java:13: error: class, interface, or enum expected
        }
        ^
FXOrder.java:16: error: class, interface, or enum expected
    public static FXOrder of(CurrencyPair pair, Side side, double price) {
                  ^
FXOrder.java:18: error: class, interface, or enum expected
    }
    ^
7 errors
bevans$ java -version
openjdk version "14-ea" 2020-03-17
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 14-ea+25-1178)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 14-ea+25-1178, mixed mode, sharing)

Is this a mistake, or have I misunderstood the contents of Build 25?

Thanks,

Ben
