[[Java Community Process|JSR 292]] (''Supporting Dynamically Typed Languages on the JavaTM Platform'') <ref>[http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=292 see JSR 292]</ref> propose to add a new <code>invokedynamic</code> instruction at the JVM level, to allow method invocation relying on dynamic [[Type system#Type checking|Typetype checking]] (instead of the existing staticstatically type checking-checked <code>invokevirtual</code> instruction). The [[Da Vinci Machine]] is a prototype virtual machine implementation that hosts JVM extensions aimed at supporting dynamic languages.
