I am glad you found it interesting - I recently read the article you referenced, I didn’t know about Java 12‘s record before. It looks like a spitting image of Kotlin.

Code generation is useful beyond it, of course, it was just a simple example.

We weren't promised that Java 12 would have Records, it's something they are looking at though, if not in Java 12 then in Java 13+. For now, we could use your solution :).
