Draft JEP Announcement: "Computed Constants"

[Remi Forax]

Hello, 
Are you aware of the lazy static final fields proposal ? 
[ https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8209964 | https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8209964 ] 

In think both proposals should be merged.

> Hi all,

> Maurizio and I have drafted a JEP for computed constants, which are
> immutable value holders that are initialized at most once. They offer
> the performance and safety benefits of final fields while offering
> greater flexibility as to the timing of initialization. In the
> context of Leyden, they could be one basis for shifting computation
> both forward and backward in time.

> The draft is here: [ https://openjdk.org/jeps/8312611 |
> https://openjdk.org/jeps/8312611 ]

> Now that the Leyden repo is open, I’ll publish the prototype code to a
> new branch there shortly.

> Comments are welcome!

> Best, Per
