Summary ------- Remove reflective APIs for unnamed classes, remove documentation related to unnamed classes from javadoc and add documentation in `java.lang.Class` related to implicit classes. Problem ------- In the second preview of this feature, support for unnamed classes has been dropped and replaced with implicit classes. The distinction between unnamed classes and implicit classes is that the implicit class syntax is purely syntactic sugar and the classes generated by the compiler are exactly like regular classes with no indication of their origin. Solution -------- Remove reflective APIs that rely on the detectability of unnamed classes and remove documentation related to unnamed classes. Also add documentation to `java.lang.Class` to indicate that implicit classes are a compiler construct. Specification ------------- Documentation in `java.lang.Class` related to unnamed classes has been replaces with documentation for implicit classes. `java.lang.Class::isUnnamedClass` is removed. This was the method used to detect an unnamed class. It is not possible to detect implicit classes since they are regular classes. `java.lang.Class::getSimpleName`, `java.lang.Class::getCanonicalName` and `java.lang.Class::isAnonymousClass` have documentation removed related to unnamed classes. ``` diff --git a/src/java.base/share/classes/java/lang/Class.java b/src/java.base/share/classes/java/lang/Class.java index c95aa764ee6..e1893d82901 100644 --- a/src/java.base/share/classes/java/lang/Class.java +++ b/src/java.base/share/classes/java/lang/Class.java @@ -190,30 +190,21 @@ * a class or interface is hidden has no bearing on the characteristics * exposed by the methods of class {@code Class}. * - * <h2><a id=unnamedClasses>Unnamed Classes</a></h2> - * - * A {@code class} file representing an {@linkplain #isUnnamedClass unnamed class} - * is generated by a Java compiler from a source file for an unnamed class. - * The {@code Class} object representing an unnamed class is top-level, - * {@linkplain #isSynthetic synthetic}, and {@code final}.
