Remi,

Thanks for reviewing. Your suggestion sounds sensibly.
May be it also has sense to make a method "getMethodRefNameAndTypeIndex(int index)" to acquire name-and-type entry index for methods also.

Hi Konstantin,
Technically, getInvokedynamicRefInfoAt should be 
getNameAndTypeOfInvokedynamicRefInfoAt because it only extract the nameAndType 
value of the InvokeDynamicRef.

In term of API, I think it's better to decompose the API, i.e. to have a method
   int getInvokedynamicRefNameAndTypeIndex(int index)
that returns the nameAndType index and to reuse getNameAndTypeRefInfoAt(index) 
to get the corresponding array of Strings.

cheers,
Rémi

Hello

Please review an enhancement to add three new methods to
sun.reflect.ConstantPool class.
The following methods are suggested:

public String[] getNameAndTypeRefInfoAt(int index) - returns string
representation of name and type from a NameAndType constant pool entry
with the specified index

public String[] getInvokedynamicRefInfoAt(int index) - returns string
representation of name and type from an InvokeDynamic constant pool entry
with the specified index

public Tag getTagAt(int index) - returns a Tag enum instance of a constant
pool entry with the specified index

These three methods could be used for testing API working with constant
pool, e.g. JVMCI.
