Talk proposal: Adding support for OpenJDK 8 to JamVM

[Robert Lougher]

Title: Adding support for OpenJDK 8 to JamVM

Abstract:

OpenJDK 8 has required substantial changes to the VM to support the
new features in the language.  This talk will provide an overview of
the modifications required to JamVM to support them.  This includes
JSR292 (invokedynamic), JSR308 (type annotations), JSR335 (lambda
expressions) and JSR901 (method parameter reflection).  As of now,
JamVM fully supports OpenJDK 8.
