Summary: Add support for Java Records in Ignite 3
Key: IGNITE-23625
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-23625
Project: Ignite
Issue Type: Epic
Reporter: Tiago Marques Godinho
Records, which were introduced in Java 16, provide a compelling alternative to
POJOs for data-carrying purposes. They significantly reduce boilerplate and in
general, provide a better developer experience.
As a result, Ignite 3 should support records on their main public APIs.
The biggest barriers I found in our codebase for supporting records are:
* Strict requirement for default constructors in our models/data carrier
classes.
* A slight misalignment in the policy for instantiating these classes.
PojoMarshaller first creates the instances and then injects the fields, which
should be the opposite for records.
They seem pretty simple to overcome.
