-XX:[+|-]ShowHiddenFrames

This reimplementation of the Oracle HotSpot diagonostic option enables or disables the display of generated hidden MethodHandle frames in a stack trace.

This option doesn't affect the contents of dump files.

Unlike the HotSpot implementation, this option doesn't require the +UnlockDiagnosticVMOptions option.

Syntax
