Hello dev.java team!

In case it is useful, I am reporting where in this tutorial it may be most helpful to add just a couple of sentences to stay up to date with the new import module feature (JEP 511) that came out in Java 25 ( https://openjdk.org/jeps/511 ).

In the latest version of https://dev.java/learn/packages/ (archived as is at https://web.archive.org/web/20260527153107/https://dev.java/learn/packages/ ),

The choices provided for using public types from other packages are out of date for module imports:

To use a public type that is in a different package, you have three choices:

1. use the fully qualified name of the type,
2. import the type, or
3. import the entire package of which the type is a member.

Now, since JEP 511 in Java 25 ( https://openjdk.org/jeps/511 ),

there is a 4th choice:

[suggested] 4. import the entire module (all exported packages) which exports the package of which the type is a member.

as one can do module level imports, like import module java.base , which as an example,

then has "the same effect as 54 on-demand package imports, one for each of the packages exported by the java.base module. It is as if the source file contains import java.io.* and import java.util.* and so on."

It may also be useful to separately mention that in a modular application, only public types in packages exported or opened by a module are visible outside that module and also provide the reader with a link to the tutorial on modules ( https://dev.java/learn/modules/ ).

Thanks!
