I'd definitely be curious about which signals you're drawing on. From what I've seen, the Valhalla OpenJDK wiki has gone without update for quite some time, and even that wiki refers to JEP 169 ("Value Objects") as old.
I do get the feeling that there's activity, given that JEP 416 is targeted for Java 18 and specifically refers to Valhalla (and Loom) as benefactors of the proposal, and seeing as the mailing list is reasonably active. But since there's little official word and not much buzz on my radar (even Loom has significant buzz), I'm not expecting anything soon.
- Skinney 5y agoJEP 401 (candidate status) was updated this september: https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/401 https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/401 Also in September, a brief status was posted: https://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/valhalla-spec-observers/2021-September/001575.html https://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/valhalla-spec-observ...
- Twisol 5y agoAh, very nice on both counts. It looks like instantiating generics over primitive types won't happen until a yet later JEP, and preview features tend to have a cycle time of at least two releases anyway, so I won't expect too much until Java 20. But it's still nice to see where things stand now :)
