This doesn’t fix the case where the lambda is created from an instance method, e.g.:


import java.util.function.Supplier;

public class HiddenLambda implements HiddenTest {
	public String test() {
		Supplier<String> s = this::toString;
		return s.get();
	}

	public String toString() {
		return getClass().getName();
	}
}
