Eclipse 4.25 with Java 19 support demonstrates concrete editor and debugger behavior: pattern matching for switch adds a when clause and enforces exhaustiveness at compile time; record patterns support nested deconstruction down to components; the debugger shows virtual threads as system threads and illustrates that starting 11 virtual threads on an 8‑core machine schedules only 8 carriers so breakpoints stop only scheduled carriers; Javadoc now supports @snippet with @highlight/@replace/@link, regions and external snippet files via snippet path, and generated docs match the IDE demos.
