Could we say that, in so many words, in the Javadoc?

It's not 100% obvious to me whether this refers to a default implementation in an interface, a class which inherits that default implementation and does not override it, or both. Is that worth clarifying in the doc, rather than forcing readers to check the JLS citation?

The issue is where you obtained this Method reference from: - from the Interface? then it is a default method - from a class implementing the interface but not redefining the method? then it is a default method - from a class implementing the interface and redefining the method? then it is NOT a default method.

Please review these changes to add core reflection support to recognize default methods: 8005042 Add Method.isDefault to core reflection http://cr.openjdk.java.net/****darcy/8005042.0/<http://cr.openjdk.java.net/**darcy/8005042.0/> <http://cr.**openjdk.java.net/darcy/**8005042.0/<http://cr.openjdk.java.net/darcy/8005042.0/> >

Looks good to me. For the test: 56 System.err.printf("ERROR: On %s expected isDefualt of ''%s''; got ''%s''.\n", 57 method.toString(), expected, actual); A typo 'isDefualt' -> 'isDefault'. This uses two single-quote characters to wrap the expected and actual value - is it intentional? I was wondering that you meant to use one singe-quote character. Mandy
