Hi there!

We are working on a project which also needs to mark out the new operation of some local variables. However, in our build environment (openjdk 8u102-b14), we haven't seen the RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME ElementType.LOCAL_VARIABLE @Gen annotation appears in the classfile. Even its name doesn't exist in the constant pool of the classfile. So we can do nothing but applied some ugly modification to JVM and JDK to make our project works.

However, I found that it's possible to directly use local variable annotations according to your brilliant paper. So I'm very curious about your openjdk version, the implementation of @Gen annotation and whether you have modified javac or not, since It seems that the code of @Gen annotation and javac are not included in this project.

It seems OLR is not included in this repo. I'm very curious about how object graph analyzer works, since your brilliant paper does not give details on how it decide a object should allocted in which generation, and how it decide a new generation is necessary, besides predefined young/old generation.
