"The Panama Effect" with Jorn Vernee
from Inside Java Hosted by Jorn Vernee, Ana-Maria Mihalceanu
The Foreign Function and Memory API will be finalised in JDK 22. This API helps you integrate native code within your Java program. Using this new API you can efficiently invoke code outside the JVM, safely access memory not managed by the JVM, call native libraries and process native data without the brittleness and danger of JNI. Jorn Vernee, core contributor and maintainer of the FFM API, is Ana's guest during this episode. Jorn explains what is the Foreign Memory Access API, its goals and the iterations that this API went through. Jorn also shares a few examples of Java libraries that already adopted the FFM API, the performance improvements they observed. He also explains how you can use this new API to integrate a native library within your own Java code.
