The stricter checks added by 8035781: Improve equality for annotations in creating the proxy objects used to implement annotations has an unintended by-catch of rejecting annotation's whose type has, say, a field initialized with a lambda expression. While uncommon, it is legal code to have a field in an annotation type.
The updated checks skip over the sort of synthetic method used for the initialization. Some different compilation tactics were used before and after nest mates, so the test includes compilation and testing under both situations. ------------- Commit messages: - 8169629: Annotations with lambda expressions cause AnnotationFormatErro Changes: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/3294/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.java.net/?repo=jdk&pr=3294&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8169629 Stats: 29 lines in 2 files changed: 25 ins; 0 del; 4 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/3294.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk pull/3294/head:pull/3294 PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/3294
