Chris, sorry for the late reply.
>> Here's a version with the new naming scheme:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~vlivanov/8037210/webrev.03.naming
I like existing naming scheme and OBJECT/VOID/LONG/etc names are quite popular(e.g.
Wrapper & ASM (Opcodes) use them).
Of course they are popular because these are the type names. There is no type
L; it’s an object. I don’t understand why we have to use different names just
because they are used in other namespaces. This is not a C define.
I see 2 problems with the naming scheme you propose.
(1) Wrapper, Opcodes & BasicType collide in some places. If element
names are the same, static import doesn't work and all usages should be
disambiguated.
(2) BasicType.I_TYPE corresponds to 5 primitive types. It's misleading
to call it BasicType.INT (or BasicType.INTEGER) (consider Wrapper.INT vs
BasicType.INT).
Current naming scheme makes correspondence with JVM basic types explicit.

So, I'm in favor of leaving it as is.
Best regards,

I would suggest to not name them X_TYPE but give them meaningful names like
Int, Float, Void. The enum BasicType already infers that it’s a type. If you
think it’s not clear that it’s a type just use BasicType.Double in that places.

Updated version:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~vlivanov/8037210/webrev.03/
- changed the way how arrays of types are created:
static final BasicType[] ALL_TYPES = BasicType.values();
static final BasicType[] ARG_TYPES = Arrays.copyOf(ALL_TYPES,
ALL_TYPES.length-1);
- added a test for BasicType (LambdaFormTest.testBasicType).

John, thanks for the feedback.
Updated webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~vlivanov/8037210/webrev.02
Also moved LambdaForm.testShortenSignature() into a stand-alone unit test.

What do you think about the following:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~vlivanov/8037210/webrev.01/
That looks nice. Strong typing; who woulda' thunk it. :-)
The uses of ".ordinal()" are the extra cost relative to using just small
integers. They seem totally reasonable in the code.
I suggest either wrapping "ordinal" as something like "id" or else
changing temp names like "id" to "ord", to reinforce the use of a common
name.
Don't make the enum class public. And especially don't make the mutable
arrays public:
+ public static final BasicType[] ALL_TYPES = { L_TYPE, I_TYPE,
J_TYPE, F_TYPE, D_TYPE, V_TYPE };
+ public static final BasicType[] ARG_TYPES = { L_TYPE, I_TYPE,
J_TYPE, F_TYPE, D_TYPE };
— John
P.S. That would only be safe if we had (what we don't yet) a notion of
frozen arrays like:
+ public static final BasicType final[] ALL_TYPES = { L_TYPE,
I_TYPE, J_TYPE, F_TYPE, D_TYPE, V_TYPE };
+ public static final BasicType final[] ARG_TYPES = { L_TYPE,
I_TYPE, J_TYPE, F_TYPE, D_TYPE };
