Class Lookup

java.lang.Object

jdk.dynalink.linker.support.Lookup

public final class Lookup
extends Object

A wrapper around MethodHandles.Lookup that masks checked exceptions. It is useful in those cases when you're looking up methods within your own codebase (therefore it is an error if they are not present).

the unreflected field getter handle.

Throws:

IllegalAccessError - if the getter is inaccessible.

findGetter

public MethodHandle findGetter(Class<?> refc,
 String name,
 Class<?> type)

Performs a MethodHandles.Lookup.findGetter(Class, String, Class), converting any encountered IllegalAccessException into an IllegalAccessError and NoSuchFieldException into a NoSuchFieldError.

Parameters:

refc - the class declaring the field

name - the name of the field

type - the type of the field

Returns:

the unreflected field getter handle.

Throws:

IllegalAccessError - if the field is inaccessible.

NoSuchFieldError - if the field does not exist.

unreflectSetter

public MethodHandle unreflectSetter(Field f)

Performs a MethodHandles.Lookup.unreflectSetter(Field), converting any encountered IllegalAccessException into an IllegalAccessError.

Parameters:

f - the field for which a setter is unreflected

Returns:

the unreflected field setter handle.

Throws:

IllegalAccessError - if the field is inaccessible.

NoSuchFieldError - if the field does not exist.

unreflectConstructor

public MethodHandle unreflectConstructor(Constructor<?> c)

Performs a MethodHandles.Lookup.unreflectConstructor(Constructor), converting any encountered IllegalAccessException into an IllegalAccessError.

Parameters:

c - the constructor to unreflect

Returns:

the unreflected constructor handle.

Throws:

IllegalAccessError - if the constructor is inaccessible.

unreflectConstructor

public static MethodHandle unreflectConstructor(MethodHandles.Lookup lookup,
 Constructor<?> c)

Performs a MethodHandles.Lookup.unreflectConstructor(Constructor), converting any encountered IllegalAccessException into an IllegalAccessError.

Parameters:

lookup - the lookup used to unreflect

c - the constructor to unreflect

Returns:

the unreflected constructor handle.

Throws:

IllegalAccessError - if the constructor is inaccessible.

findSpecial

public MethodHandle findSpecial(Class<?> declaringClass,
 String name,
 MethodType type)

Performs a MethodHandles.Lookup.findSpecial(Class, String, MethodType, Class) on the underlying lookup. Converts any encountered IllegalAccessException into an IllegalAccessError and NoSuchMethodException into a NoSuchMethodError.

Parameters:

declaringClass - class declaring the method

name - the name of the method

type - the type of the method

Returns:

a method handle for the method

Throws:

IllegalAccessError - if the method is inaccessible.

NoSuchMethodError - if the method does not exist.

findStatic

public MethodHandle findStatic(Class<?> declaringClass,
 String name,
 MethodType type)

Performs a MethodHandles.Lookup.findStatic(Class, String, MethodType) on the underlying lookup. Converts any encountered IllegalAccessException into an IllegalAccessError and NoSuchMethodException into a NoSuchMethodError.

Parameters:

Performs a MethodHandles.Lookup.findVirtual(Class, String, MethodType) on the underlying lookup. Converts any encountered IllegalAccessException into an IllegalAccessError and NoSuchMethodException into a NoSuchMethodError.

Parameters:

declaringClass - class declaring the method

name - the name of the method

type - the type of the method

Returns:

findOwnSpecial

public static MethodHandle findOwnSpecial(MethodHandles.Lookup lookup,
 String name,
 Class<?> rtype,
 Class<?>... ptypes)

Given a lookup, finds using findSpecial(Class, String, MethodType) a method on that lookup's class. Useful in classes' code for convenient linking to their own privates.

Parameters:

lookup - the lookup for the class

name - the name of the method

rtype - the return type of the method

ptypes - the parameter types of the method

Returns:

the method handle for the method

findOwnSpecial

public MethodHandle findOwnSpecial(String name,
 Class<?> rtype,
 Class<?>... ptypes)

Finds using findSpecial(Class, String, MethodType) a method on that lookup's class. Useful in classes' code for convenient linking to their own privates. It's also more convenient than findSpecial in that you can just list the parameter types, and don't have to specify lookup class.

Parameters:

name - the name of the method

rtype - the return type of the method

ptypes - the parameter types of the method

Returns:

the method handle for the method

findOwnStatic

public static MethodHandle findOwnStatic(MethodHandles.Lookup lookup,
 String name,
 Class<?> rtype,
 Class<?>... ptypes)

Given a lookup, finds using findStatic(Class, String, MethodType) a method on that lookup's class. Useful in classes' code for convenient linking to their own privates. It's easier to use than findStatic in that you can just list the parameter types, and don't have to specify lookup class.

Parameters:

lookup - the lookup for the class

name - the name of the method

rtype - the return type of the method

ptypes - the parameter types of the method

Returns:

the method handle for the method

findOwnStatic

public MethodHandle findOwnStatic(String name,
 Class<?> rtype,
 Class<?>... ptypes)

Finds using findStatic(Class, String, MethodType) a method on that lookup's class. Useful in classes' code for convenient linking to their own privates. It's easier to use than findStatic in that you can just list the parameter types, and don't have to specify lookup class.

Parameters:

name - the name of the method

rtype - the return type of the method

ptypes - the parameter types of the method

Returns:

the method handle for the method
