In the following classes, month and day values are stored in fields of type 'int' or 'short'. The range of allowed values is small enough that the type can be 'byte' instead.
java.time.YearMonth java.time.MonthDay java.time.LocalDate java.time.chono.HijrahDate Refactoring the type will give the JVM a little more layout flexibility, and will be especially useful when these classes become value classes. ------------- Commit messages: - Changing month and day value data type to byte Changes: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/24975/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.org/?repo=jdk&pr=24975&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8334742 Stats: 16 lines in 4 files changed: 0 ins; 0 del; 16 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/24975.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.org/jdk.git pull/24975/head:pull/24975 PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/24975
