Methods in java.lang.constant that return DirectMethodHandleDesc
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`DirectMethodHandleDesc`	DynamicConstantDesc.`bootstrapMethod()`	Returns a `MethodHandleDesc` describing the bootstrap method for this constant.
`static DirectMethodHandleDesc`	MethodHandleDesc.`of(DirectMethodHandleDesc.Kind kind, ClassDesc owner, String name, String lookupDescriptor)`	Creates a MethodHandleDesc corresponding to an invocation of a declared method, invocation of a constructor, or access to a field.
`static DirectMethodHandleDesc`	ConstantDescs.`ofCallsiteBootstrap(ClassDesc owner, String name, ClassDesc returnType, ClassDesc... paramTypes)`	Returns a `MethodHandleDesc` corresponding to a bootstrap method for an `invokedynamic` callsite, which is a static method whose leading parameter types are `Lookup`, `String`, and `MethodType`.
`static DirectMethodHandleDesc`	ConstantDescs.`ofConstantBootstrap(ClassDesc owner, String name, ClassDesc returnType, ClassDesc... paramTypes)`	Returns a `MethodHandleDesc` corresponding to a bootstrap method for a dynamic constant, which is a static method whose leading arguments are `Lookup`, `String`, and `Class`.
`static DirectMethodHandleDesc`	MethodHandleDesc.`ofConstructor(ClassDesc owner, ClassDesc... paramTypes)`	Returns a MethodHandleDesc corresponding to invocation of a constructor
`static DirectMethodHandleDesc`	MethodHandleDesc.`ofField(DirectMethodHandleDesc.Kind kind, ClassDesc owner, String fieldName, ClassDesc fieldType)`	Creates a MethodHandleDesc corresponding to a method handle that accesses a field.
`static DirectMethodHandleDesc`	MethodHandleDesc.`ofMethod(DirectMethodHandleDesc.Kind kind, ClassDesc owner, String name, MethodTypeDesc lookupMethodType)`	Creates a MethodHandleDesc corresponding to an invocation of a declared method or constructor.

Methods in java.lang.constant with parameters of type DirectMethodHandleDesc
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`static DynamicCallSiteDesc`	DynamicCallSiteDesc.`of(DirectMethodHandleDesc bootstrapMethod, MethodTypeDesc invocationType)`	Creates a nominal descriptor for an `invokedynamic` call site whose bootstrap method has no static arguments and for which the name parameter is `ConstantDescs.DEFAULT_NAME`.
`static DynamicCallSiteDesc`	DynamicCallSiteDesc.`of(DirectMethodHandleDesc bootstrapMethod, String invocationName, MethodTypeDesc invocationType)`	Creates a nominal descriptor for an `invokedynamic` call site whose bootstrap method has no static arguments.
`static DynamicCallSiteDesc`	DynamicCallSiteDesc.`of(DirectMethodHandleDesc bootstrapMethod, String invocationName, MethodTypeDesc invocationType, ConstantDesc... bootstrapArgs)`	Creates a nominal descriptor for an `invokedynamic` call site.
`static <T> DynamicConstantDesc<T>`	DynamicConstantDesc.`of(DirectMethodHandleDesc bootstrapMethod)`	Returns a nominal descriptor for a dynamic constant whose bootstrap has no static arguments, whose name parameter is `ConstantDescs.DEFAULT_NAME`, and whose type parameter is always the same as the bootstrap method return type.
`static <T> DynamicConstantDesc<T>`	DynamicConstantDesc.`of(DirectMethodHandleDesc bootstrapMethod, ConstantDesc... bootstrapArgs)`	Returns a nominal descriptor for a dynamic constant whose name parameter is `ConstantDescs.DEFAULT_NAME`, and whose type parameter is always the same as the bootstrap method return type.
`static <T> ConstantDesc`	DynamicConstantDesc.`ofCanonical(DirectMethodHandleDesc bootstrapMethod, String constantName, ClassDesc constantType, ConstantDesc[] bootstrapArgs)`	Returns a nominal descriptor for a dynamic constant, transforming it into a more specific type if the constant bootstrap is a well-known one and a more specific nominal descriptor type (e.g., ClassDesc) is available.
`static <T> DynamicConstantDesc<T>`	DynamicConstantDesc.`ofNamed(DirectMethodHandleDesc bootstrapMethod, String constantName, ClassDesc constantType, ConstantDesc... bootstrapArgs)`	Returns a nominal descriptor for a dynamic constant.

Constructors in java.lang.constant with parameters of type DirectMethodHandleDesc
Constructor	Description
`DynamicConstantDesc(DirectMethodHandleDesc bootstrapMethod, String constantName, ClassDesc constantType, ConstantDesc... bootstrapArgs)`	Creates a nominal descriptor for a dynamic constant.
