This is a point fix to make the native methods MethodHandle.invoke and .invokeExact throw UnsupportedOperationException.

Currently they throw a linkage exception, because they are not actually defined by C code. (They are defined by Java, but when called fail to link. This UOE is the documented exception type.) http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jrose/7044892/webrev.jvm.00/src/share/vm/prims/methodHandles.cpp.udiff.html Because this is an exception error, it is bundled with bug 7044892. This is a separate review because it is a JVM code change. -- John
