A utility for accessing and invoking methods, via reflection, that would otherwise be unaccessible.

Construct an instance for the given params.
Params:
  • klass – the class to which the method belongs
  • methodName – the name of the method
  • paramTypes – the paramater type array
Throws:
/** * Construct an instance for the given params. * * @param klass the class to which the method belongs * @param methodName the name of the method * @param paramTypes the paramater type array * @throws NullPointerException if <code>klass</code> * or <code>name</code> is <code>null</code> * @throws NoSuchMethodException if the method can't be found */

Invoke the method that this object represents. Has the same behavior and throws the same exceptions as java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke with one exception: This method does not throw IllegalAccessException since the target method has already been made accessible.
Params:
  • obj – the object the underlying method is invoked from
  • args – the arguments used for the method call
See Also:
Returns:the result of dispatching the method represented by this object on obj with parameters args
/** * Invoke the method that this object represents. * Has the same behavior and throws the same exceptions as * <code>java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke</code> with one * exception: This method does not throw * <code>IllegalAccessException</code> since the target * method has already been made accessible. * * @param obj the object the underlying method is invoked from * @param args the arguments used for the method call * @return the result of dispatching the method represented by * this object on <code>obj</code> with parameters * <code>args</code> * @see java.lang.reflect.Method#invoke */
public Object invoke(Object obj, Object ... args) throws IllegalArgumentException, InvocationTargetException { try { return method.invoke(obj, args); } catch (IllegalAccessException e) { // should never happen since we've made it accessible throw new AssertionError("accessible method inaccessible"); } }
Invoke the method that this object represents, with the expectation that the method being called throws no checked exceptions.

Simply calls this.invoke(obj, args) but catches any InvocationTargetException and returns the cause wrapped in a runtime exception.

Params:
  • obj – the object the underlying method is invoked from
  • args – the arguments used for the method call
