Hello,
Through reflection you can do activity at runtime or examine the exceutting java programm.

ex= through bello programm you can get all the list of method of MyClass
same like this you can get all declared field Through Field Class of reflection packege.
Class c = Class.forName("MyClass");
Method m[] = c.getDeclaredMethods();
for (int i = 0; i < m.length; i++)
System.out.println(m[i].toString()); //It will give you all
//methods declared in MyClass
}
Thanks

Hi Friend,

It is a powerful approach to analyze the class at runtime.It allows programmatic access to information about the fields, methods and constructors of loaded classes, and the use reflected fields, methods, and constructors to operate on their underlying counterparts on objects, within security restrictions.
