Javadoc for the proposed StackWalker API: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mchung/jdk9/jep259/api/java/lang/StackWalker.html A simple way to walk the stack: StackWalker walker = new StackWalker(StackWalker.Option.CLASS_REFERENCE); walker.walk((s) -> s.filter(f -> interestingClasses.contains(f.getDeclaringClass())).findFirst()); The current usage of sun.reflect.Reflection.getCallerClass(int depth) can be replaced with this StackWalker API. Any feedback on the proposed API is appreciated. Mandy P.S. webrev of the current implementation: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mchung/jdk9/jep259/webrev.00/
