Interfaces

MethodHandleInfo	A symbolic reference obtained by cracking a direct method handle into its consitutent symbolic parts.
TypeDescriptor	An entity that has a type descriptor.

Classes

CallSite	A CallSite is a holder for a variable MethodHandle, which is called its target.
ConstantCallSite	A ConstantCallSite is a CallSite whose target is permanent, and can never be changed.
MethodHandle	A method handle is a typed, directly executable reference to an underlying method, constructor, field, or similar low-level operation, with optional transformations of arguments or return values.
MethodHandles	This class consists exclusively of static methods that operate on or return method handles.
MethodType	A method type represents the arguments and return type accepted and returned by a method handle, or the arguments and return type passed and expected by a method handle caller.
MutableCallSite	A MutableCallSite is a CallSite whose target variable behaves like an ordinary field.
VarHandle	A VarHandle is a dynamically strongly typed reference to a variable, or to a parametrically-defined family of variables, including static fields, non-static fields, array elements, or components of an off-heap data structure.
VolatileCallSite	A VolatileCallSite is a CallSite whose target acts like a volatile variable.

Exceptions

LambdaConversionException	LambdaConversionException
StringConcatException	StringConcatException is thrown by StringConcatFactory when linkage invariants are violated.
WrongMethodTypeException	Thrown to indicate that code has attempted to call a method handle via the wrong method type.
