I am using MethodHandle of java 7 to set/get attribute value of a POJO class(instead of conventional getters and setters). I am using MethodHandle.invoke() for the same.

My application needs to know the attribute name associated with the above invocation.

Is there a way to get the attribute name involved with the MethodHandle.

If it is of type Method then it is possible with reflection. But can anyone tell me how to do the same in MethodHandle.
