Produces a method handle for a static method.

[Android.Runtime.Register("findStatic", "(Ljava/lang/Class;Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/invoke/MethodType;)Ljava/lang/invoke/MethodHandle;", "", ApiSince=26)]
public Java.Lang.Invoke.MethodHandle FindStatic (Java.Lang.Class refc, string name, Java.Lang.Invoke.MethodType type);

[<Android.Runtime.Register("findStatic", "(Ljava/lang/Class;Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/invoke/MethodType;)Ljava/lang/invoke/MethodHandle;", "", ApiSince=26)>]
member this.FindStatic : Java.Lang.Class * string * Java.Lang.Invoke.MethodType -> Java.Lang.Invoke.MethodHandle

Parameters

refc: Class

the class from which the method is accessed

name: String

the name of the method

type: MethodType

the type of the method

Returns

MethodHandle

the desired method handle

Attributes: RegisterAttribute

Remarks

Produces a method handle for a static method. The type of the method handle will be that of the method. (Since static methods do not take receivers, there is no additional receiver argument inserted into the method handle type, as there would be with #findVirtual findVirtual or #findSpecial findSpecial.) The method and all its argument types must be accessible to the lookup object.

The returned method handle will have MethodHandle#asVarargsCollector variable arity if and only if the method's variable arity modifier bit (0x0080) is set.

If the returned method handle is invoked, the method's class will be initialized, if it has not already been initialized.

<b>Example:</b> <blockquote>

{@code
            import static java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles.*;
            import static java.lang.invoke.MethodType.*;
            ...
            MethodHandle MH_asList = publicLookup().findStatic(Arrays.class,
              "asList", methodType(List.class, Object[].class));
            assertEquals("[x, y]", MH_asList.invoke("x", "y").toString());
            }
