      As part of the reflection support for generics, the EnclosingMethod attribute
      was added to the 1.5 class file format to allow proper reflection on the type
      variables of anonymous classes declared inside generified methods. The JVM needs
      to parse and preserve this attribute and return it from certain reflective
      calls.
