JEP 280: Indify String Concatenation [0]

This JEP proposed to change the static |String|-concatenation bytecode sequence generated by |javac| to use |invokedynamic| calls to JDK library functions. This will enable future optimizations of |String| concatenation without requiring further changes to the bytecode emitted by |javac|.

Early Access b104 <https://jdk9.java.net/jigsaw/> for JDK 9 with Project Jigsaw is available on java.net.

Great to meet so many of you at FOSDEM this year, videos of some of the presentations are available [1]

Rgds,Rory
