## [Java] Class IndyInterface

- org.codehaus.groovy.vmplugin.v7.IndyInterface

- Bytecode level interface for bootstrap methods used by invokedynamic. This class provides a logging ability by using the boolean system property groovy.indy.logging. Other than that this class contains the interfacing methods with bytecode for invokedynamic as well as some helper methods and classes.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### public static CallSite bootstrap(Lookup caller, String callType, MethodType type, String name, int flags)

      bootstrap method for method calls from Groovy compiled code with indy enabled. This method gets a flags parameter which uses the following encoding:

      - {
        value:
          #SAFE_NAVIGATION} is the flag value for safe navigation see SAFE_NAVIGATION
      - {@value #THIS_CALL} is the flag value for a call on this see THIS_CALL
      Parameters:
        `caller` - - the caller
        `callType` - - the type of the call
        `type` - - the call site type
        `name` - - the real method name
        `flags` - - call flags
      Returns:
        the produced CallSite
      Since:
        Groovy 2.1.0
