Packages that use java.lang.invoke

Package	Description
java.lang.invoke	The java.lang.invoke package contains dynamic language support provided directly by the Java core class libraries and virtual machine.
jdk.dynalink	Contains interfaces and classes that are used to link an invokedynamic call site.
jdk.dynalink.beans	Contains the linker for ordinary Java objects.
jdk.dynalink.linker	Contains interfaces and classes needed by language runtimes to implement their own language-specific object models and type conversions.
jdk.dynalink.linker.support	Contains classes that make it more convenient for language runtimes to implement their own language-specific object models and type conversions by providing basic implementations of some classes as well as various utilities.
jdk.dynalink.support	Contains classes that make using Dynalink more convenient by providing basic implementations of some classes as well as various utilities.

Classes in java.lang.invoke used by java.lang.invoke

Class	Description
CallSite	A CallSite is a holder for a variable MethodHandle, which is called its target.
LambdaConversionException	LambdaConversionException
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.
MethodHandleInfo	A symbolic reference obtained by cracking a direct method handle into its consitutent symbolic parts.
MethodHandles.Lookup	A lookup object is a factory for creating method handles, when the creation requires access checking.
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.
StringConcatException	StringConcatException is thrown by StringConcatFactory when linkage invariants are violated.
SwitchPoint	A SwitchPoint is an object which can publish state transitions to other threads.
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.
VarHandle.AccessMode	The set of access modes that specify how a variable, referenced by a VarHandle, is accessed.
