JSR 394 (Java SE 19): JEP Proposed to Target: 425: Virtual Threads (Preview)

[Iris Clark]

The following JEP with scope "SE" has been proposed to target JDK 19:

  425: Virtual Threads (Preview)
       https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/425

  Summary: Introduce virtual threads to the Java Platform. Virtual
  threads are lightweight threads that dramatically reduce the effort
  of writing, maintaining, and observing high-throughput concurrent
  applications. This is a preview API.

The announced deadline for feedback to jdk-dev is Thu 5 May 23:59 UTC:

    http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/jdk-dev/2022-April/006530.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.java.net/jeps/1

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