Records Come to Java

This looks like syntactic sugar for comcepts that already exist?

I think in Java’s case, its only mow getting struct-like semantics

edit I may be wrong. It could be a purely syntax level feature in Java as well.

Java records are syntax sugar.

Value semantics are proposed in JEP 169 [1] and are part of Project Valhalla. [2]
