JSR 396 (Java SE 21): JEP Proposed to Target: 446: Scoped Values (Preview)

[Iris Clark]

The following JEP with scope "SE" has been proposed to target JDK 21:

  446: Scoped Values (Preview)
       https://openjdk.org/jeps/446

  Summary: Introduce scoped values, which enable the sharing of immutable
  data within and across threads.  They are preferred to thread-local
  variables, especially when using large numbers of virtual threads.
  This is a preview API.

The announced deadline for feedback to jdk-dev is Tue 6 Jun 23:59 UTC:

    https://mail.openjdk.org/pipermail/jdk-dev/2023-May/007887.html

If there are no unresolved objections at that time, then the JEP will be moved
to the Targeted state, indicating that the feature is expected to appear in
the specified release of the JDK Project.  For more information about states,
see the JEP Process document:

    https://openjdk.org/jeps/1

A dashboard that lists JEPs with "SE" scope may be found via a link on this
