Hi maurizio, In my opinion, XlintWarn should also test invokeGeneric(). Moreover, it will be better to have one test by invoke*() instead of having one test for all invoke*()

Rémi Hi Remi I agree on your comments; however note that the aim of the XlintWarn test is to check that the compiler issues warnings in relation to old-style usage of 292 target typing - since the old syntax is going away (see related cleanup CR: 6992698). In other words, the aim of this changeset is to make tests pass again (with b123) awaiting for a more precise cleanup (which is needed since InvokeDynamic and other 292 features should be removed from the JDK 7 repo).
