Java 21 Features

 Finalized Features:

  • Virtual Threads (Project Loom):
    Lightweight threads that simplify writing high-throughput, scalable applications by reducing the overhead of creating and managing threads. 
  • Record Patterns:
    Enable pattern matching for record deconstruction, making it easier to extract data from records. 
  • Pattern Matching for Switch:
    Enhances the switch statement, allowing for more complex pattern matching and reducing boilerplate code. 
  • Sequenced Collections:
    Introduces interfaces like SequencedCollectionSequencedSet, and SequencedMap to provide a consistent way to work with ordered collections and access their first and last elements. 
  • Foreign Function & Memory API (Final):
    Provides a stable API for interacting with native code, offering a more efficient and manageable way to integrate with non-Java code. 
  • Generational ZGC:
    Improves garbage collection performance by managing young and old object generations separately within the Z Garbage Co
