dumb question: any reason why `boolean.class` (which is compiled to a LDC) is
not used?
I only see `boolean.class` compiled to `getstatic Boolean.TYPE`. Is there a
javac flag to compile it to a LDC?
The LDC bytecode instruction for a class takes a class name not a descriptor as
parameter, so there is no way to encode LDC Z. Valhalla may change that.
Remi is right - I got ahead of myself :-)
