> 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.
Hearing no objections, I’ve targeted this JEP to JDK 18.
