Class RecordPatternsExamples

java.lang.Object

net.jrodolfo.java_evolution.java21.RecordPatternsExamples

public class RecordPatternsExamples
extends Object

Demonstrates record patterns, finalized in Java 21.

Records make transparent data carriers concise, but code often needs to read the components back out. Record patterns let code test the type and bind record components in one expression, which is especially useful for nested records.
