Hello Core Libs Dev team,
I would like to propose a patch [1] that applies pattern matching for
'instanceof' (JEP-394) and 'switch-case' (JEP-433) on java.base. I
suppose this enchantment will improve readability and reduce the code
redundancy in cases of casts after 'inctanceof' checking.
For better reviewing this improvement can be split into 4 tasks 1 for
each package: java [2], javax [3], sun [4] and com.sun.crypto [5].
Please share your thoughts on whether such an improvement might be
applied.
From a quick scan, you'll probably be asked to rename a lot of the
variables as they very inconsistent with the naming in the changed
source file, otherwise they should be safe and I assume you'll run at
least tier1+tier2 at least.
