It states "At this point, class fields, methods, and implemented interfaces are available, and no code from the class has been executed." but that neither describes preparation, nor the rest of linking. You can only access fields and methods after a class has been initialized! But lets take this elsewhere if needed. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/26863#issuecomment-3226945362
