  45  * <p>Methods to facilitate the creation of String concatenation methods, that
  46  * can be used to efficiently concatenate a known number of arguments of known
  47  * types, possibly after type adaptation and partial evaluation of arguments.
  48  * These methods are typically used as <em>bootstrap methods</em> for {@code
  49  * invokedynamic} call sites, to support the <em>string concatenation</em>
  50  * feature of the Java Programming Language.
  51  *
  52  * <p>Indirect access to the behavior specified by the provided {@code
  53  * MethodHandle} proceeds in order through two phases:
  54  *
  55  * <ol>
  56  *     <li><em>Linkage</em> occurs when the methods in this class are invoked.
  57  * They take as arguments a method type describing the concatenated arguments
  58  * count and types, and optionally the String <em>recipe</em>, plus the
  59  * constants that participate in the String concatenation. The details on
  60  * accepted recipe shapes are described further below. Linkage may involve
  61  * dynamically loading a new class that implements the expected concatenation
  62  * behavior. The {@code CallSite} holds the {@code MethodHandle} pointing to the
  63  * exact concatenation method. The concatenation methods may be shared among
  64  * different {@code CallSite}s, e.g. if linkage methods produce them as pure
  65  * functions.</li>
  66  *
  67  * <li><em>Invocation</em> occurs when a generated concatenation method is
  68  * invoked with the exact dynamic arguments. This may occur many times for a
  69  * single concatenation method. The method referenced by the behavior {@code
  70  * MethodHandle} is invoked with the static arguments and any additional dynamic
  71  * arguments provided on invocation, as if by {@link MethodHandle#invoke(Object...)}.</li>
  72  * </ol>
  73  *
  74  * <p> This class provides two forms of linkage methods: a simple version
  75  * ({@link #makeConcat(java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles.Lookup, String,
  76  * MethodType)}) using only the dynamic arguments, and an advanced version
  77  * ({@link #makeConcatWithConstants(java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles.Lookup,
  78  * String, MethodType, String, Object...)} using the advanced forms of capturing
  79  * the constant arguments. The advanced strategy can produce marginally better
  80  * invocation bytecode, at the expense of exploding the number of shapes of
  81  * string concatenation methods present at runtime, because those shapes would
  82  * include constant static arguments as well.

  88  * @apiNote
  89  * <p>There is a JVM limit (classfile structural constraint): no method
  90  * can call with more than 255 slots. This limits the number of static and
  91  * dynamic arguments one can pass to bootstrap method. Since there are potential
  92  * concatenation strategies that use {@code MethodHandle} combinators, we need
  93  * to reserve a few empty slots on the parameter lists to capture the
  94  * temporal results. This is why bootstrap methods in this factory do not accept
  95  * more than 200 argument slots. Users requiring more than 200 argument slots in
  96  * concatenation are expected to split the large concatenation in smaller
  97  * expressions.

 444      * feature of the Java Programming Language.
 445      *
 446      * <p>When the target of the {@code CallSite} returned from this method is
 447      * invoked, it returns the result of String concatenation, taking all
 448      * function arguments and constants passed to the linkage method as inputs for
 449      * concatenation. The target signature is given by {@code concatType}, and
 450      * does not include constants. The arguments are concatenated as per requirements
 451      * stated in JLS 15.18.1 "String Concatenation Operator +". Notably, the inputs
 452      * are converted as per JLS 5.1.11 "String Conversion", and combined from left

 462      *   <li><em>\1 (Unicode point 0001)</em>: an ordinary argument. This

 464      *   concatenation method invocation. This input can be null.</li>
 465      *
 466      *   <li><em>\2 (Unicode point 0002):</em> a constant. This input passed
 467      *   through static bootstrap argument. This constant can be any value
 468      *   representable in constant pool. If necessary, the factory would call
 469      *   {@code toString} to perform a one-time String conversion.</li>
 470      *

 473      *

 668           However, there are two peculiarities:
 669 
 670            a) The generated class should stay within the same package as the
 671               host class, to allow Unsafe.defineAnonymousClass access controls
 672               to work properly. JDK may choose to fail with IllegalAccessException
 673               when accessing a VM anonymous class with non-privileged callers,
 674               see JDK-8058575.
 675 
 676            b) If we mark the stub with some prefix, say, derived from the package
 677               name because of (a), we can technically use that stub in other packages.
 678               But the call stack traces would be extremely puzzling to unsuspecting users
 679               and profiling tools: whatever stub wins the race, would be linked in all
 680               similar callsites.
 681 
 682            Therefore, we set the class prefix to match the host class package, and use
 683            the prefix as the cache key too. This only affects BC_* strategies, and only when
 684            cache is enabled.

 754      * Bytecode StringBuilder strategy.
 755      *
 756      * <p>This strategy operates in three modes, gated by {@link Mode}.
 757      *
 758      * <p><b>{@link Strategy#BC_SB}: "bytecode StringBuilder".</b>
 759      *
 760      * <p>This strategy spins up the bytecode that has the same StringBuilder
 761      * chain javac would otherwise emit. This strategy uses only the public API,
 762      * and comes as the baseline for the current JDK behavior. On other words,
 763      * this strategy moves the javac generated bytecode to runtime. The
 764      * generated bytecode is loaded via Unsafe.defineAnonymousClass, but with
 765      * the caller class coming from the BSM -- in other words, the protection
 766      * guarantees are inherited from the method where invokedynamic was
 767      * originally called. This means, among other things, that the bytecode is
 768      * verified for all non-JDK uses.
 769      *
 770      * <p><b>{@link Strategy#BC_SB_SIZED}: "bytecode StringBuilder, but
 771      * sized".</b>
 772      *
 773      * <p>This strategy acts similarly to {@link Strategy#BC_SB}, but it also
 774      * tries to guess the capacity required for StringBuilder to accept all
 775      * arguments without resizing. This strategy only makes an educated guess:
 776      * it only guesses the space required for known types (e.g. primitives and
 777      * Strings), but does not otherwise convert arguments. Therefore, the
 778      * capacity estimate may be wrong, and StringBuilder may have to
 779      * transparently resize or trim when doing the actual concatenation. While
 780      * this does not constitute a correctness issue (in the end, that what BC_SB
 781      * has to do anyway), this does pose a potential performance problem.
 782      *
 783      * <p><b>{@link Strategy#BC_SB_SIZED_EXACT}: "bytecode StringBuilder, but
 784      * sized exactly".</b>
 785      *
 786      * <p>This strategy improves on @link Strategy#BC_SB_SIZED}, by first
 787      * converting all arguments to String in order to get the exact capacity
 788      * StringBuilder should have. The conversion is done via the public
 789      * String.valueOf and/or Object.toString methods, and does not touch any
 790      * private String API.

 832                     of the conversion. String.valueOf does the null checks for us. The only
 833                     corner case to take care of is String.valueOf(Object) returning null itself.
 834
