Adding the .class files to a .jar and running it produces the same:

The second question is, what type is test.main()?
I want to be able to put it into a Map.

public final class Main
{ public static void main( final java.lang.String[] args )
   { final java.util.Map
     < java.util.function.Consumer< java.lang.String[] >,
       java.util.function.Consumer< java.lang.String[] >> map =
     new java.util.HashMap<>();
     map.put( Main::main, Main::main ); }}

What is Main::main, is it a Method? You can't call Main::main.invoke().
I'd like to figure out a way to store some sort of a reference to
Main.main() so that I could execute it.

Maybe I'm barking up a non-existent tree?

Thanks,
