creating proxies for interfaces with default methods

[Remi Forax]

Not if you use Lookup.findSpecial() [1]
Anyway, you can not use it because you can not get the Lookup object associated with the proxy class.

That's why i've written the Proxy2 library [2].

so the solutions are either you use the Proxy2 library (which doesn't work with jdk9 yet) or we retrofit the interface InvocationHandler to take a supplementary Lookup object.

Rémi
