Closures for the Java Programming Language

An Innovators' Challenge entry to implement Lambda Expressions. Project Closures was delivered into JDK 8 via Project Lambda. This Project was dissolved by virtue of losing its sponsoring Group. Discussion about Closures may be found on compiler-dev.

This goal of this Project is to produce a feature-complete prototype of the Java bytecode compiler (javac) for the draft BGGA Closures specification.

This Project is sponsored by the OpenJDK Compiler Group.
