Recently I took the time to read the early draft of JSR-292, the invokedynamic bytecode specification. For those slightly less familiar with the subject, it makes it possible to perform late binding on method invocations, allowing for calling methods on objects without knowing the object type at compile time. This feature is important for projects such as Jython and JRuby, which provide Java bytecode compilation to the popular Python and Ruby languages.
Liked Chaotic Java? It's free! But I also make some other things that aren't, which you might like. Like Firewall, a rule changing, turn based strategy game for iOS.
