Project Panama: Reimagining Java's Foreign Function Interface - Update

Explore Project Panama's revolutionary approach to foreign function and data structure integration in Java in this 43-minute talk. Discover how 'jextract' generates Java interfaces from native headers, enabling seamless binding to native methods and data structures without platform-specific C or C++ code. Delve into the composable architecture of Panama's foreign support, examining its expressiveness and efficiency. Gain insights into advantages, potential beneficiaries, and building blocks such as Unsafe, Pointer API, Memory API, and Memory Layouts. Understand key concepts like temporal bounds, safety, usability, and performance implications. Learn about scope, concurrency, and static thread confinement in this comprehensive overview of Java's evolving foreign interoperability capabilities.
