Resolution: Fixed
> DgmConverter: avoid MethodType constants in the adapter initialisers
> --------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: GROOVY-12388
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-12388

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Paul King

> Fix For: 6.0.0-RC-2
>
>
> Involves: the generated dgm$N classes load their target handle with an ldc
> MethodType, which D8 accepts only from API 28. Emitting a
> MethodType.methodType(Class, Class[]) call instead brings the floor back to
> API 26, where indy starts.
> Impact on normal usage: slightly larger adapter bytecode and a method call
> instead of a constant-pool resolution in each adapter's static initialiser,
> both negligible. The value is small too: Android 8 and 8.1 devices are around
> one percent of the installed base, so this is the one I would skip.
