     34  * A symbolic reference obtained by cracking a direct method handle
     35  * into its consitutent symbolic parts.
     36  * To crack a direct method handle, call {@link Lookup#revealDirect Lookup.revealDirect}.
     37  * <h1><a name="directmh"></a>Direct Method Handles</h1>
     38  * A <em>direct method handle</em> represents a method, constructor, or field without
     39  * any intervening argument bindings or other transformations.
     40  * The method, constructor, or field referred to by a direct method handle is called
     41  * its <em>underlying member</em>.
     42  * Direct method handles may be obtained in any of these ways:
     43  * <ul>
     44  * <li>By executing an {@code ldc} instruction on a {@code CONSTANT_MethodHandle} constant.
     45  *     (See the Java Virtual Machine Specification, sections 4.4.8 and 5.4.3.)
     46  * <li>By calling one of the <a href="MethodHandles.Lookup.html#lookups">Lookup Factory Methods</a>,
     47  *     such as {@link Lookup#findVirtual Lookup.findVirtual},
     48  *     to resolve a symbolic reference into a method handle.
     49  *     A symbolic reference consists of a class, name string, and type.
     50  * <li>By calling the factory method {@link Lookup#unreflect Lookup.unreflect}
     51  *     or {@link Lookup#unreflectSpecial Lookup.unreflectSpecial}
     52  *     to convert a {@link Method} into a method handle.
     53  * <li>By calling the factory method {@link Lookup#unreflectConstructor Lookup.unreflectConstructor}
     54  *     to convert a {@link Constructor} into a method handle.
     55  * <li>By calling the factory method {@link Lookup#unreflectGetter Lookup.unreflectGetter}
     56  *     or {@link Lookup#unreflectSetter Lookup.unreflectSetter}
     57  *     to convert a {@link Field} into a method handle.
     58  * </ul>
     59  *
     60  * <h1>Restrictions on Cracking</h1>
     61  * Given a suitable {@code Lookup} object, it is possible to crack any direct method handle
     62  * to recover a symbolic reference for the underlying method, constructor, or field.
     63  * Cracking must be done via a {@code Lookup} object equivalent to that which created
     64  * the target method handle, or which has enough access permissions to recreate
     65  * an equivalent method handle.
     66  * <p>
     67  * If the underlying method is <a href="MethodHandles.Lookup.html#callsens">caller sensitive</a>,
     68  * the direct method handle will have been "bound" to a particular caller class, the
     69  * {@linkplain java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles.Lookup#lookupClass() lookup class}
     70  * of the lookup object used to create it.
     71  * Cracking this method handle with a different lookup class will fail
     72  * even if the underlying method is public (like {@code Class.forName}).
     73  * <p>
     74  * The requirement of lookup object matching provides a "fast fail" behavior
     75  * for programs which may otherwise trust erroneous revelation of a method
     76  * handle with symbolic information (or caller binding) from an unexpected scope.
     77  * Use {@link java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles#reflectAs} to override this limitation.
     78  *
     79  * <h1><a name="refkinds"></a>Reference kinds</h1>
     80  * The <a href="MethodHandles.Lookup.html#lookups">Lookup Factory Methods</a>
     81  * correspond to all major use cases for methods, constructors, and fields.
