Annotation Interface Advice.SelfCallHandle

Enclosing class:
Advice

@Documented @Retention(RUNTIME) @Target(PARAMETER) public static @interface Advice.SelfCallHandle

Indicates that the annotated parameter should load a java.lang.invoke.MethodHandle that represents an invocation of the current method. If the current method is virtual, it is bound to the current instance such that the virtual hierarchy is avoided. This annotation can only be used on methods, not constructors.

Important: Don't confuse this annotation with MemberSubstitution.SelfCallHandle. This annotation should be used only in combination with Advice.
