背景

在使用Lamdba表达式,一直以为是内部类的方式实现的,但是一想如果每次调用都实例化一个内部类,性能肯定不好,难道Java里的lambda表达式真的是这么实现的吗?也许是该研究下原理了。

正文

  1. 测试代码:
public class Test{
public void test() {
Runnable r = () -> System.out.println(123);
r.run();
}
}

执行编译命令javac -g Test.java,得到class文件。

  1. 查看字节码

查看字节码javap -p -verbose Test得到:

通过字节码文件我们可以看到,编译出来的字节码文件中新增一些玩意:

  1. 常量池里(#2)多了一个以前没有见过的InvokeDynamic指令
  2. 新增了一个静态私有方法:private static void lambda$test$0(),里面的内容正好是lambda表达式里的代码;
  3. 新增了一个BootstrapMethods属性,内部包含一个动态调用点列表,因为测试代码只有一个lambda表达式,所以我们只能看到一个调用点

在运行时有一个链接(link)过程,在JVM层面调用。通过链接操作,调用上面3中的调用点,调用点在动态生成实现了FunctionInterface接口的类,方法中则调用2中新增的lambda$test$0方法,生成类之后通过构造函数实例化一个对象,被调用点持有,调用点有一个字的常量池。在调用invokedynamic指令之前会发生链接过程。下文引自:参考5

里面也有提到过多线程场景,略过不提。

Before the JVM can execute a dynamic call site (an invokedynamic instruction), the call site must first be linked. Linking is accomplished by calling a bootstrap method which is given the static information content of the call site, and which must produce a method handle that gives the behavior of the call site.

总结

通过一些验证和资料检索,大概了解lambda的原理,是使用指令与动态生成的内部类来完成调用,而且正常只会被链接一次。从这个点上来看,对性能是没有什么损失的,可以放心的使用。

问题

自己梳理的比较肤浅,没有深挖最底层的实现。LambdaMetafactory.metafactory动态调用点的链接过程比较长,如果有动态调用的场景应该是可以参考的。翻到过一篇问答(见参考6),暂时没找到合适的场景使用,没有深入下去的动力。
