Description Marvin Fröhlich CLA 2022-05-20 04:05:08 EDT 
When using step into during debugging for a line like this

foo( x -> true, this::bar );

the debugger will step into (should be transparent) construction of the lambda calls (including function pointer construction).

There should be a switch for this behavior, that should even be off by default. I'm pretty sure, the majority will not be interested in this JDK internal handling.

Yes, I know, this can be steped over via F6. But we want it simple, don't we?

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
