[jira] [Created] (ZEST-119) Investigate if MethodHandles and CallSites can benefit Zest

Niclas Hedhman created ZEST-119:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Investigate if MethodHandles and CallSites can benefit Zest
                 Key: ZEST-119
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZEST-119
             Project: Zest
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Niclas Hedhman


The introduction of invokedynamic at JVM level, also introduced support in the JDK to leverage this.

We should try to figure out if Reflection and Byte Code generation is still the best option for Zest. Perhaps these new features are more suitable.

First task is to find a comprehensive explanation of what these things are, as the Javadocs are incredibly hard to understand, as I think I am lacking some bigger picture explanation.
