In the API for @BootstrapMethod, it says: "Annotation on InvokeDynamic

invokedynamic instruction which specifies the desired bootstrap

This annotation has disappear in latest revision.
Now, there is no way to express invokedynamic in Java (the language).

Is there some detail somewhere for language implementers on how to
implement the constant-pool entry for the invokedynamic instruction?

Details are here:

Or you can use ASM 4.0 (beta):
