Actually, I completely forgot that we don't even need to bother with `var`. [JEP 512] uses `import module java.base`, so `Reader` and `Writer` will be imported regardless. So, keep explicit types or use `var` -- your choice. 

The only thing that we'll need to do is change the snippet flavour. While __now__ it works as is, technically, there will no longer be the `ProcessExamples` class. From JEP 512:

> The Java compiler generates a class name when compiling a compact source file, but that name is implementation-specific and should not be relied upon in any source code -- not even source code in the compact source file itself.

So, we should use the `file` not `class` attribute, I think. See [JEP 413] for more info:

    {@snippet file=ProcessExamples.java region=example}
