[Anna Kozlova]

Hello,

 

Running the following class

{code}

public class FooBar {

    private static final class Bar {

        private Bar() {

        }

    }

 

    private interface I {

        Bar create();

    }

 

    static void foo(I intf) {}

 

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

        foo(Bar::new);

    }

}

{code}

 

fails with 

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IncompatibleClassChangeError

If I convert method reference to lambda expression or anonymous class
everything works correctly.  Checked with b68.

 

Thank you
