createConstrDB

public static MethodDB<java.lang.reflect.Constructor<?>> createConstrDB(java.lang.Class<?> c)

setDebug

public static void setDebug(boolean b)

isDebug

public static boolean isDebug()

matchEntryFast

public DBEntry<M> matchEntryFast(java.lang.Class<?>[] args)

!Quickly! return the most specific (first) Match from the entries. Returns null if none is found.

matchAllEntries

public List<DBEntry<M>> matchAllEntries(java.lang.Class<?>[] args)

Match All the entries that are applicable

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Normal toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

toString

public java.lang.String toString(java.lang.String s)

Return a String representation of this MethodDB with s in between the method entries

prefixApp

public List<DBEntry<M>> prefixApp(java.lang.Class<?> c)

Filter the DBEntries based on the number of arguments and the type of the first argument. Greater than one means that they place a constraint on the traversal of an instance of "c" (if applicable)
