Class ClassFileApiPreviewNotes

java.lang.Object
net.jrodolfo.java_evolution.java22.class_file_api.ClassFileApiPreviewNotes
public class ClassFileApiPreviewNotes extends Object
Explains the Class-File API, introduced as a Java 22 preview feature.

Tools such as frameworks, compilers, agents, and bytecode libraries often need to read, generate, or transform .class files. Java 22 introduced a standard API that can evolve together with the class-file format.

This Java 22 package keeps the feature explanatory because the API was still preview in Java 22. The final runnable example lives in the Java 24 class_file module, where the Class-File API became final.
