Method Detail

getMethod

static Method getMethod(Class type,
               String name,
               Class[] parameterTypes)

Returns the public method for the specified Class type, method name, and array of parameter types.

This method is typically used in place of Class.getMethod to get a method that should definitely be defined; thus, this method throws an error instead of an exception if the given method is missing.

This method is convenient for the initialization of a static variable for use as the mappings argument to ConstrainableProxyUtil.translateConstraints.

Parameters:

type - the Class type that defines the method of interest

name - String containing the name of the method of interest

parameterTypes - the Class types of the parameters to the method of interest

Returns:

a Method object that provides information about, and access to, the method of interest

Throws:

NoSuchMethodError - if the method of interest cannot be found

NullPointerException - if type or name is null
