Java has 2 kinds of indirect function call (to be precise, this is the "C++ ABI". The binary compatibility ABI is different -- but also isn't open to this kind of optimization). Virtual calls are implemented in a way that is compatible with C++. Interface calls are implemented in a different way. Tom
