35 * A symbolic reference obtained by cracking a direct method handle
36 * into its constituent symbolic parts.
37 * To crack a direct method handle, call {@link Lookup#revealDirect Lookup.revealDirect}.
38 * <h2><a id="directmh"></a>Direct Method Handles</h2>
39 * A <em>direct method handle</em> represents a method, constructor, or field without
40 * any intervening argument bindings or other transformations.
41 * The method, constructor, or field referred to by a direct method handle is called
42 * its <em>underlying member</em>.
43 * Direct method handles may be obtained in any of these ways:
44 * <ul>
45 * <li>By executing an {@code ldc} instruction on a {@code CONSTANT_MethodHandle} constant.
46 * (See the Java Virtual Machine Specification, sections {@jvms
47 * 4.4.8} and {@jvms 5.4.3}.)
48 * <li>By calling one of the <a href="MethodHandles.Lookup.html#lookups">Lookup Factory Methods</a>,
49 * such as {@link Lookup#findVirtual Lookup.findVirtual},
50 * to resolve a symbolic reference into a method handle.
51 * A symbolic reference consists of a class, name string, and type.
52 * <li>By calling the factory method {@link Lookup#unreflect Lookup.unreflect}
53 * or {@link Lookup#unreflectSpecial Lookup.unreflectSpecial}
54 * to convert a {@link Method} into a method handle.
55 * <li>By calling the factory method {@link Lookup#unreflectConstructor Lookup.unreflectConstructor}
56 * to convert a {@link Constructor} into a method handle.
57 * <li>By calling the factory method {@link Lookup#unreflectGetter Lookup.unreflectGetter}
58 * or {@link Lookup#unreflectSetter Lookup.unreflectSetter}
59 * to convert a {@link Field} into a method handle.
60 * </ul>
61 *
62 * <h2>Restrictions on Cracking</h2>
63 * Given a suitable {@code Lookup} object, it is possible to crack any direct method handle
64 * to recover a symbolic reference for the underlying method, constructor, or field.
65 * Cracking must be done via a {@code Lookup} object equivalent to that which created
66 * the target method handle, or which has enough access permissions to recreate
67 * an equivalent method handle.
68 * <p>
69 * If the underlying method is <a href="MethodHandles.Lookup.html#callsens">caller sensitive</a>,
70 * the direct method handle will have been "bound" to a particular caller class, the
71 * {@linkplain java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles.Lookup#lookupClass() lookup class}
72 * of the lookup object used to create it.
73 * Cracking this method handle with a different lookup class will fail
74 * even if the underlying method is public (like {@code Class.forName}).
75 * <p>
76 * The requirement of lookup object matching provides a "fast fail" behavior
77 * for programs which may otherwise trust erroneous revelation of a method
78 * handle with symbolic information (or caller binding) from an unexpected scope.
79 * Use {@link java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles#reflectAs} to override this limitation.
80 *
81 * <h2><a id="refkinds"></a>Reference kinds</h2>
82 * The <a href="MethodHandles.Lookup.html#lookups">Lookup Factory Methods</a>
83 * correspond to all major use cases for methods, constructors, and fields.
84 * These use cases may be distinguished using small integers as follows:
