- 1 An invocation handler that counts the number of calls for all methods in the target class.
- 2 Call a class method with 2 arguments
- 3 Call a member function to get the value
- 4 Call a method dynamically (Reflection)
- 5 Call a method of an object
- 6 Call a static method of a class with reflection
- 7 Call private method
- 8 Checks whether the specified class contains a method matching the specified name.
- 9 Class Reflection: show methods
- 10 Demonstrates dynamic usage of methods
- 11 Demonstrates how to get specific method information
- 12 Demonstration of various method invocation issues
- 13 Fetches all methods of all access types from the supplied class and super classes
- 14 Find a Method on the supplied class with the supplied name and no parameters
- 15 Find a Method on the supplied class with the supplied name and parameter types
- 16 Find method
- 17 Get a given method, and invoke it
- 18 Get all declared methods from a class
- 19 Get all methods including the inherited method. Using the getMethods(), we can only access public methods.
- 20 Get the class name in a static method
- 21 Get the current method name
- 22 Get the current method name With JDK1.5
- 23 Get the methods of a class object
- 24 Getting the Methods of a Class Object: By obtaining a list of all declared methods
- 25 Getting the Methods of a Class Object: By obtaining a list of all public methods, both declared and inherited.
- 26 Getting the Methods of a Class Object: By obtaining a particular Method object.
- 27 Invoke a method using Method class
- 28 Invoke method through Java Reflection API
- 29 Invokes a method, masking with a runtime exception all the exceptions.
- 30 Load a method on the fly
- 31 Make methods that have unspecified number of parameters:pass an array of Objects
- 32 Method modifiers: isSynthetic(), m.isVarArgs(), m.isBridge()
- 33 Method Reflection
- 34 Object Reflection: invoke methods
- 35 Returns method with the specified name
- 36 Show loading a class and finding and calling its Main method
- 37 Sorts methods according to their name, number of parameters, and parameter types.
- 38 The next example calls a class method with 2 arguments:
- 39 To get the calling method
- 40 Using reflection to show all the methods of a class,
An invocation handler that counts the number of calls for all methods in the target class.
