Re: New Reflection/Beans API

It can be useful to implement high level methods ( static ? )

MethodGen getMethodGen( ClassGen, java.lang.rerfect.Method );

Field .....

addReadMethod( ClassGen, java.lang.reflect.Field );

addWriteMethod( ClassGen, java.lang.reflect.Field );

addReadWriteMethods( ClassGen, java.lang.Class interface );

................................................................................................

Type getType(Class)

......................................

  invoke( InstructionList, Mathod );
  readField( InstructionList, java.lang.reflect.Field);

........................................
