What is the equivalent of the C++ Pair in Java?

Question

Is there a good reason why there is no Pair in Java? What would be the equivalent of this C++ construct? I would rather avoid reimplementing my own.<

You can use Google's AutoValue library - https://github.com/google/auto/tree/master/value.

You create a very small abstract class and annotate it with @AutoValue and the annotation processor generates a concrete class for you that has a value semantic.
