[jvm-l] Neat JSR292 trick

, insertArguments(findVirtual(SephObject.class, invocationFor, SephObject.class, int.class), 1, arity())); } Obviously this is a bit simplified, but the key insight is that you can use findVirtual to lookup a method handle to MethodHandle.invoke of any arity you want. Cheers -- Ola Bini (http
