Subject: JSR 395 (Java SE 20): JEP Proposed to Target: 434: Foreign Function &
 Memory API (Second Preview)
Message-ID: <SJ0PR10MB54401E134E976DB7CBCC5DF7FBE09@SJ0PR10MB5440.namprd10.prod.outlook.com>

[ An audit in preparation for Public Review discovered that the following JEP
incorrectly declared Scope = "JDK" instead of "SE".  The Scope has been
updated and the deadline for feedback has been extended.  Please read the
following announcement carefully as it differs slightly from the typical
Proposed to Target message. ]

The following JEP with updated scope "SE" was proposed to target JDK 20:

  434: Foreign Function & Memory API (Second Preview)
       https://openjdk.org/jeps/434

  Summary: Introduce an API by which Java programs can interoperate with
  code and data outside of the Java runtime.  By efficiently invoking
  foreign functions (i.e., code outside the JVM), and by safely accessing
  foreign memory (i.e., memory not managed by the JVM), the API enables
  Java programs to call native libraries and process native data without
  the brittleness and danger of JNI.  This is a preview API.

The original announced deadline for feedback to jdk-dev was Mon 28 Nov 23:59 UTC:

    https://mail.openjdk.org/pipermail/jdk-dev/2022-November/007215.html

The revised deadline for feedback to jdk-dev is Wed 21 Dec 23:59 UTC.

If there are no unresolved objections at that time, then the JEP will
remain in 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

Our apologies for the late notice.

Subject: JSR 395 (Java SE 20) Specification -- DRAFT 28
Message-ID: <SJ0PR10MB544049C93760C6A811B5AACAFBE59@SJ0PR10MB5440.namprd10.prod.outlook.com>

Hi.

A draft of the Specification is available here:

    https://cr.openjdk.java.net/~iris/se/20/spec/draft/java-se-20-draft-spec-28/

This draft includes the following:

    - Spec, section 4 "Component JSR Specifications": MRs for 199 and 269

`   - Spec, section 5 "Features", subsection "Restricted methods": Updates for
      JEP 434

    - Spec, section 9 "APIS proposed for removal":
        o Add APIs corresponding to CSRs 8292843 and 8297795

    - Annexes 1 and 2: Updates based on build 28

    - Annex 3:
        o Add references to JEPs 432 and 433

    - Annex 4 - 11:
        o Diffs for narrative specs (e.g. JAR File, Serialization, RMI) based
          on build 28


The next JCP milestone is PR, scheduled for January 2023.  As usual with
milestones, we'll take a snapshot of the current Specification (without
changebars) and submit it for publication.  I anticipate PR submission to the
PMO mid-January, for publication later that month.


Links to the JEP/CSR Dashboards, latest Specification, latest JavaDoc API and
diffs, and latest RI binaries may be found on this page:

Thanks,
