> (Apologies in advance - this is a very large diff.)
> During the past year, both the Apache Commons BCEL team and our group here at 
> the UW independently completed the support for InvokeDynamic .  Some things 
> we chose to do the same way, but there are a few items that are quite 
> different.  Trying not to be too biased, I believe our method is better.  One 
> of the larger differences is your decision to add the abstract class 
> NameSignatureMethod between FieldOrMethod and CPInstruction and then have 
> InvokeDynamic extend from that instead of from InvokeInstruction.  To me this 
> seems wrong.   In addition to forcing InvokeDynamic to duplicate all the 
> methods from InvokeInstruction and FieldOrMethod, it is awkward that it is 
> the only form of the Invoke Instruction that doesn't derive from 
> InvokeInstruction. 
> This patch also includes several methods missing from the current 
> implementation: alternative initializers, toString, and support for the 
> Visitor paradigm.
> There are bug fixes to Constants.java and InstructionFinder.java as well.
