Method Detail

invoke

Object invoke(T obj,
              Object... args)
       throws IllegalAccessException,
              IllegalArgumentException,
              InvocationTargetException

Invokes the underlying method represented by this IMethod object, on the specified object with the specified parameters. Individual parameters are automatically unwrapped to match primitive formal parameters, and both primitive and reference parameters are subject to method invocation conversions as necessary.

Parameters:

obj - the object the underlying method is invoked from

args - the arguments used for the method call

Returns:

the result of dispatching the method represented by this object on obj with parameters args

Throws:

IllegalAccessException - if this Method object enforces Java language access control and the underlying method is inaccessible.

IllegalArgumentException - if the method is an instance method and the specified object argument is not an instance of the class or interface declaring the underlying method (or of a subclass or implementor thereof); if the number of actual and formal parameters differ; if an unwrapping conversion for primitive arguments fails; or if, after possible unwrapping, a parameter value cannot be converted to the corresponding formal parameter type by a method invocation conversion.

InvocationTargetException - if the underlying method throws an exception.

NullPointerException - if the specified object is null and the method is an instance method.

ExceptionInInitializerError - if the initialization provoked by this method fails.
