Hi, all.
The javadoc comment of java.lang.Class.getMethod API has following clause.
@CallerSensitive
public Method getMethod(String name, Class<?>... parameterTypes)
throws NoSuchMethodException, SecurityException
"The {@code parameterTypes} parameter is an array of {@code Class}
objects that identify the method's formal parameter types, in declared
order. If {@code parameterTypes} is {@code null}, it is
treated as if it were an empty array."
As you know the method signature changed to use varargs since JDK 1.5,
if parameterTypes is given null, the compiler will interpret the parameter with
“new Class[] { null }”.
So, the javadoc comment can’t be happen and inaccurate in the view of the code.
I think it can be safely changed as below. or even better just remove the
clause ;
If {@code parameterTypes} is missing, it is treated as if it were an empty
array.
