(changing the subject so we don't disrupt the main discussion) Not quite 😔
The changes in Java to support Lambdas are much deeper than just how the Metafactory is invokedynamic'ed, as it changes how type inference and overload resolution is done. Same as with the issues we discussed a while back around method references: Supporting Java8 semantics in the Groovy compiler is a very big task, as we just don't have the type information available. I would much rather suggest supporting the lambda syntax with groovy semantics, but add warnings if we detect that the code may rely on Java lambda semantics. For instance, we could warn the user if the lambda referred to 'this' or 'super' directly. -Jesper > On 7 Feb 2017, at 16.00, Daniel Sun <realblue...@hotmail.com> wrote: > > Hi Jochen, > > > > That’s great! > > Paul and Graeme are both afraid of future breaking changes of groovy’s lambda > expression, which is currently based on closure.
