Produces a method handle which will discard some placeholder arguments before calling some other specified target method handle.

Adapts a target method handle to match the given parameter type list.

Drop the return value of the target handle (if any).

Produces a method handle of the requested type which ignores any arguments, does nothing, and returns a suitable default depending on the return type.

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

Produces a special <em>invoker method handle</em> which can be used to invoke any method handle of the given type, as if by MethodHandle#invokeExact invokeExact.

Produces a method handle which adapts the type of the given method handle to a new type by pairwise argument and return type conversion.

Adapts a target method handle by pre-processing one or more of its arguments, each with its own unary filter function, and then calling the target with each pre-processed argument replaced by the result of its corresponding filter function.

Adapts a target method handle by post-processing its return value (if any) with a filter (another method handle).

Adapts a target method handle by pre-processing some of its arguments, starting at a given position, and then calling the target with the result of the pre-processing, inserted into the original sequence of arguments just before the folded arguments.

Adapts a target method handle by pre-processing some of its arguments, and then calling the target with the result of the pre-processing, inserted into the original sequence of arguments.

Returns a hash code value for the object.

Makes a method handle which adapts a target method handle, by guarding it with a test, a boolean-valued method handle.

Produces a method handle which returns its sole argument when invoked.

Provides a target method handle with one or more <em>bound arguments</em> in advance of the method handle's invocation.

Returns a Lookup lookup object with full capabilities to emulate all supported bytecode behaviors of the caller.

Produces a special <em>invoker method handle</em> which can be used to invoke any method handle compatible with the given type, as if by MethodHandle#invoke invoke.

Constructs a loop that ranges over the values produced by an Iterator<T>.

Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object.

Constructs a method handle representing a loop with several loop variables that are updated and checked upon each iteration.

Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.

Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.

Produces a method handle which adapts the calling sequence of the given method handle to a new type, by reordering the arguments.

Returns a Lookup lookup object which is trusted minimally.

Performs an unchecked "crack" of a direct method handle.

Sets the Handle property.

Produces a method handle which will throw exceptions of the given exType.

Returns a string representation of the object.

Makes a method handle that adapts a target method handle by wrapping it in a try-finally block.

Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being <em>notified</em> or <em>interrupted</em>.

Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being <em>notified</em> or <em>interrupted</em>, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.

Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being <em>notified</em> or <em>interrupted</em>, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.

Constructs a while loop from an initializer, a body, and a predicate.

Produces a constant method handle of the requested return type which returns the default value for that type every time it is invoked.

Performs an Android runtime-checked type conversion.
