Class LambdaMethodTargetSelector

java.lang.Object

com.ibm.wala.ipa.summaries.LambdaMethodTargetSelector

All Implemented Interfaces:

MethodTargetSelector

public class LambdaMethodTargetSelector
extends Object
implements MethodTargetSelector

Generates synthetic summaries to model the behavior of Java 8 lambdas. See this good discussion of how lambdas look in bytecode.

We generate two types of summaries.

1. A summary class corresponding to an anonymous class generated for the lambda; see LambdaSummaryClass.
2. A summary method corresponding to the lambda factory generated by the bootstrap method; this is the method actually called by invokedynamic.

getCalleeTarget

public IMethod getCalleeTarget(CGNode caller,
 CallSiteReference site,
 IClass receiver)

Return a synthetic method target for invokedynamic calls corresponding to Java lambdas

Specified by:

getCalleeTarget in interface MethodTargetSelector

Parameters:

caller - the GCNode in the call graph containing the call

site - the call site reference of the call site

receiver - the type of the target object or null

Returns:

a synthetic method if the call is an invokedynamic for Java lambdas; the callee target from the base selector otherwise
