> Hello,
> 
> Please consider this fix for [JDK-8319196: ExecutableElement.getReceiverType doesn't return receiver types for methods loaded from bytecode](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8319196).
> 
> As discussed in [the accompanying CSR](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8319330), `ExecutableElement.getReceiverType()` and `ExecutableType.getReceiverType()` currently returns `NoType` unless the receiver parameter syntax was present in source, which also means that `getReceiverType()` doesn't work for methods loaded from class files.
> 
> This fix updates the implementation to return the implicit receiver type of methods that do not explicitly declare a receiver parameter in source, including for methods that were loaded from class files.
