[records] C-style array declaration of record components - sec 10.2 clarification

[Manoj Palat]

Hi Gavin, all,

>From http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~gbierman/jep395/jep395-20201204/specs/records-jls.html (which is the http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~gbierman/jep395/latest as of writing this),
from the section before introduction, we see that :

"The changes are the same as those in the second preview of Records in Java SE 15, except for minor editorial changes and the following:
...
Add text to explicitly rule out using C-style array declaration of record components (10.2)."

but 10.2 talks about only variable arity record component as reproduced below:

"the array type of the variable is denoted by:
...
any bracket pairs that follow the variable's Identifier in the declarator (not applicable for a variable arity parameter or variable arity record component); then
..."

Shouldn't the text in the brackets be "(not applicable for a variable arity parameter or record component)" ?


Regards,
Manoj
