Project Valhalla introduces value types into the Java language and virtual machine. Value types can be more efficient since they do not need pointer indirection and heap allocation. Moreover, Valhalla will lead to a more regular object model, unifying primitive types and their boxed types, and to simpler parameterized types. In this presentation, you will learn about the present state of the project so that you can evaluate its impact on your Java workloads. ➜ Subscribe to JAVAPRO and never miss an update: https://bit.ly/YouTube-JAVAPRO-subscribe ▬ About us: ▬ JAVAPRO is the magazine for professional, real-world Java development.
