[jira] [Created] (GROOVY-7423) Access to Method parameter names at runtime

Nick Grealy created GROOVY-7423:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Access to Method parameter names at runtime
                 Key: GROOVY-7423
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-7423
             Project: Groovy
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: ast builder, command line processing, Compiler, groovy-runtime
            Reporter: Nick Grealy
            Assignee: Guillaume Laforge
             Fix For: 2.2.3


Given that JDK8 now supports accessing parameter names at runtime
<http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/118>, I'd like to incorporate this behaviour
into the Groovy compiler.

I'm proposing adding a command line/configuration change to the groovyc
compiler, to add reflective information to the compiled bytecode (i.e. the
parameter names).

I'm not proposing any changes to the current behaviour of method invocation
(using named parameters).
