T - the class in which the constructor is declared
AnnotatedElement, GenericDeclaration, Member
Constructor
provides information about, and access to, a single constructor for a class.
Constructor permits widening conversions to occur when matching the actual parameters to newInstance() with the underlying constructor's formal parameters, but throws an IllegalArgumentException if a narrowing conversion would occur.
boolean
Compares this Constructor against the specified object.
Returns an AnnotatedType object that represents the use of a type to specify the receiver type of the method/constructor represented by this Executable object.
Returns an AnnotatedType object that represents the use of a type to specify the return type of the method/constructor represented by this Executable.
Returns this element's annotation for the specified type if such an annotation is present, else null.
Returns annotations that are directly present on this element.
Returns the Class object representing the class that declares the constructor represented by this object.
Returns an array of Class objects that represent the types of exceptions declared to be thrown by the underlying executable represented by this object.
Returns an array of Type objects that represent the exceptions declared to be thrown by this executable object.
Returns an array of Type objects that represent the formal parameter types, in declaration order, of the executable represented by this object.
int
Returns the Java language
modifiersfor the executable represented by this object.
Returns the name of this constructor, as a string.
Returns an array of arrays of Annotations that represent the annotations on the formal parameters, in declaration order, of the Executable represented by this object.

Returns a hashcode for this Constructor.
boolean
Returns true if this executable is a synthetic construct; returns false otherwise.
boolean
Returns true if this executable was declared to take a variable number of arguments; returns false otherwise.
Uses the constructor represented by this Constructor object to create and initialize a new instance of the constructor's declaring class, with the specified initialization parameters.
void
Set the accessible flag for this reflected object to the indicated boolean value.
Returns a string describing this Constructor, including type parameters.
Returns a string describing this Constructor.
public void setAccessible(boolean flag)
Set the
accessible
flag for this reflected object to the indicated boolean value. A value of
true
indicates that the reflected object should suppress checks for Java language access control when it is used. A value of
false
indicates that the reflected object should enforce checks for Java language access control when it is used, with the variation noted in the class description.
This method may be used by a caller in class C to enable access to a member of declaring class D if any of the following hold:
C and D are in the same module.public and D is public in a package that the module containing D exports to at least the module containing C.protected static, D is public in a package that the module containing D exports to at least the module containing C, and C is a subclass of D.D is in a package that the module containing D opens to at least the module containing C. All packages in unnamed and open modules are open to all modules and so this method always succeeds when D is in an unnamed or open module.This method may be used by JNI code with no caller class on the stack to enable access to a member of declaring class D if and only if:
public and D is public in a package that the module containing D exports unconditionally.This method cannot be used to enable access to private members, members with default (package) access, protected instance members, or protected constructors when the declaring class is in a different module to the caller and the package containing the declaring class is not open to the caller's module.
This method cannot be used to enable write access to a non-modifiable final field. The following fields are non-modifiable:
The accessible flag when true suppresses Java language access control checks to only enable read access to these non-modifiable final fields.
If there is a security manager, its checkPermission method is first called with a ReflectPermission("suppressAccessChecks") permission.
A SecurityException is also thrown if this object is a Constructor object for the class Class and flag is true.
setAccessible in class AccessibleObject
flag - the new value for the accessible flag
InaccessibleObjectException - if access cannot be enabled
SecurityException - if the request is denied by the security manager or this is a constructor for java.lang.Class
()
Returns the Class object representing the class that declares the constructor represented by this object.
getDeclaringClass in interface Member
getDeclaringClass in class Executable
Returns the name of this constructor, as a string. This is the binary name of the constructor's declaring class.
getName in interface Member
getName in class Executable
public int getModifiers()
Returns the Java language
modifiersfor the executable represented by this object.
getModifiers in interface Member
getModifiers in class Executable
Returns an array of TypeVariable objects that represent the type variables declared by the generic declaration represented by this GenericDeclaration object, in declaration order. Returns an array of length 0 if the underlying generic declaration declares no type variables.
getTypeParameters in interface GenericDeclaration
getTypeParameters in class Executable
TypeVariable objects that represent the type variables declared by this generic declaration
GenericSignatureFormatError - if the generic signature of this generic declaration does not conform to the format specified in The Java Virtual Machine Specification
()
Returns an array of
Class
objects that represent the formal parameter types, in declaration order, of the executable represented by this object. Returns an array of length 0 if the underlying executable takes no parameters. Note that the constructors of some inner classes may have an
implicitly declaredparameter in addition to explicitly declared ones. Also note that compact constructors of a record class may have
implicitly declaredparameters.
getParameterTypes in class Executable
public int getParameterCount()
Returns the number of formal parameters (whether explicitly declared or implicitly declared or neither) for the executable represented by this object.
getParameterCount in class Executable
()
Returns an array of
Type
objects that represent the formal parameter types, in declaration order, of the executable represented by this object. An array of length 0 is returned if the underlying executable takes no parameters. Note that the constructors of some inner classes may have an implicitly declared parameter in addition to explicitly declared ones. Compact constructors of a record class may also have
implicitly declaredparameters, but they are a special case and thus considered as if they had been explicitly declared in the source. Finally note that as a
modeling artifact
, the number of returned parameters can differ depending on whether or not generic information is present. If generic information is present, parameters explicitly present in the source or parameters of compact constructors of a record class will be returned. Note that parameters of compact constructors of a record class are a special case, as they are not explicitly present in the source, and its type will be returned regardless of the parameters being
implicitly declaredor not. If generic information is not present, implicit and synthetic parameters may be returned as well.
If a formal parameter type is a parameterized type, the Type object returned for it must accurately reflect the actual type arguments used in the source code. This assertion also applies to the parameters of compact constructors of a record class, independently of them being implicitly declared or not.
If a formal parameter type is a type variable or a parameterized type, it is created. Otherwise, it is resolved.
getGenericParameterTypes in class Executable
Types that represent the formal parameter types of the underlying executable, in declaration order
GenericSignatureFormatError - if the generic method signature does not conform to the format specified in The Java Virtual Machine Specification
TypeNotPresentException - if any of the parameter types of the underlying executable refers to a non-existent type declaration
MalformedParameterizedTypeException - if any of the underlying executable's parameter types refer to a parameterized type that cannot be instantiated for any reason
()
Returns an array of Class objects that represent the types of exceptions declared to be thrown by the underlying executable represented by this object. Returns an array of length 0 if the executable declares no exceptions in its throws clause.
getExceptionTypes in class Executable
()
Returns an array of
Type
objects that represent the exceptions declared to be thrown by this executable object. Returns an array of length 0 if the underlying executable declares no exceptions in its
throws
clause.
If an exception type is a type variable or a parameterized type, it is created. Otherwise, it is resolved.
getGenericExceptionTypes in class Executable
GenericSignatureFormatError - if the generic method signature does not conform to the format specified in The Java Virtual Machine Specification
TypeNotPresentException - if the underlying executable's throws clause refers to a non-existent type declaration
MalformedParameterizedTypeException - if the underlying executable's throws clause refers to a parameterized type that cannot be instantiated for any reason
Compares this Constructor against the specified object. Returns true if the objects are the same. Two Constructor objects are the same if they were declared by the same class and have the same formal parameter types.
public int hashCode()
Returns a hashcode for this Constructor. The hashcode is the same as the hashcode for the underlying constructor's declaring class name.
Returns a string describing this
Constructor
. The string is formatted as the constructor access modifiers, if any, followed by the fully-qualified name of the declaring class, followed by a parenthesized, comma-separated list of the constructor's formal parameter types. For example:
public java.util.HashMap(int,float)
If the constructor is declared to throw exceptions, the parameter list is followed by a space, followed by the word "throws" followed by a comma-separated list of the thrown exception types.
The only possible modifiers for constructors are the access modifiers public, protected or private. Only one of these may appear, or none if the constructor has default (package) access.
toString in class Object
Constructor
()
Returns a string describing this
Constructor
, including type parameters. The string is formatted as the constructor access modifiers, if any, followed by an angle-bracketed comma separated list of the constructor's type parameters, if any, including informative bounds of the type parameters, if any, followed by the fully-qualified name of the declaring class, followed by a parenthesized, comma-separated list of the constructor's generic formal parameter types. If this constructor was declared to take a variable number of arguments, instead of denoting the last parameter as "
Type[]
", it is denoted as "
Type...
". A space is used to separate access modifiers from one another and from the type parameters or class name. If there are no type parameters, the type parameter list is elided; if the type parameter list is present, a space separates the list from the class name. If the constructor is declared to throw exceptions, the parameter list is followed by a space, followed by the word "
throws
" followed by a comma-separated list of the generic thrown exception types.
The only possible modifiers for constructors are the access modifiers public, protected or private. Only one of these may appear, or none if the constructor has default (package) access.
toGenericString in class Executable
Constructor, include type parameters
Uses the constructor represented by this
Constructor
object to create and initialize a new instance of the constructor's declaring class, with the specified initialization 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.
If the number of formal parameters required by the underlying constructor is 0, the supplied initargs array may be of length 0 or null.
If the constructor's declaring class is an inner class in a non-static context, the first argument to the constructor needs to be the enclosing instance; see section 15.9.3 of The Java Language Specification.
If the required access and argument checks succeed and the instantiation will proceed, the constructor's declaring class is initialized if it has not already been initialized.
If the constructor completes normally, returns the newly created and initialized instance.
initargs - array of objects to be passed as arguments to the constructor call; values of primitive types are wrapped in a wrapper object of the appropriate type (e.g. a float in a Float)
IllegalAccessException - if this Constructor object is enforcing Java language access control and the underlying constructor is inaccessible.
IllegalArgumentException - 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; if this constructor pertains to an enum class.
InstantiationException - if the class that declares the underlying constructor represents an abstract class.
InvocationTargetException - if the underlying constructor throws an exception.
ExceptionInInitializerError - if the initialization provoked by this method fails.
public boolean isVarArgs()
Returns true if this executable was declared to take a variable number of arguments; returns false otherwise.
isVarArgs in class Executable
true if this executable was declared to take a variable number of arguments; returns false otherwise
public boolean isSynthetic()
Returns true if this executable is a synthetic construct; returns false otherwise.
isSynthetic in interface Member
isSynthetic in class Executable
Returns this element's annotation for the specified type if such an annotation is
present, else null.
Note that any annotation returned by this method is a declaration annotation.
getAnnotation in interface AnnotatedElement
getAnnotation in class Executable
T - the type of the annotation to query for and return if present
annotationClass - the Class object corresponding to the annotation type
NullPointerException - if the given annotation class is null
Returns annotations that are
directly presenton this element. This method ignores inherited annotations. If there are no annotations
directly presenton this element, the return value is an array of length 0. The caller of this method is free to modify the returned array; it will have no effect on the arrays returned to other callers.
Note that any annotations returned by this method are declaration annotations.
getDeclaredAnnotations in interface AnnotatedElement
getDeclaredAnnotations in class AccessibleObject
Returns an array of arrays of
Annotation
s that represent the annotations on the formal parameters, in declaration order, of the
Executable
represented by this object. Synthetic and mandated parameters (see explanation below), such as the outer "this" parameter to an inner class constructor will be represented in the returned array. If the executable has no parameters (meaning no formal, no synthetic, and no mandated parameters), a zero-length array will be returned. If the
Executable
has one or more parameters, a nested array of length zero is returned for each parameter with no annotations. The annotation objects contained in the returned arrays are serializable. The caller of this method is free to modify the returned arrays; it will have no effect on the arrays returned to other callers. A compiler may add extra parameters that are implicitly declared in source ("mandated"), as well as parameters that are neither implicitly nor explicitly declared in source ("synthetic") to the parameter list for a method. See
Parameter
for more information.
Note that any annotations returned by this method are declaration annotations.
getParameterAnnotations in class Executable
Returns an AnnotatedType object that represents the use of a type to specify the return type of the method/constructor represented by this Executable. If this Executable object represents a constructor, the AnnotatedType object represents the type of the constructed object. If this Executable object represents a method, the AnnotatedType object represents the use of a type to specify the return type of the method.
getAnnotatedReturnType in class Executable
Executable
Returns an
AnnotatedType
object that represents the use of a type to specify the receiver type of the method/constructor represented by this
Executable
object. The receiver type of a method/constructor is available only if the method/constructor has a receiver parameter (JLS
8.4.1). If this
Executable
object
represents an instance method or represents a constructor of an inner member class, and the method/constructor
eitherhas no receiver parameter or has a receiver parameter with no annotations on its type, then the return value is an
AnnotatedType
object representing an element with no annotations. If this
Executable
object represents a static method or represents a constructor of a top level, static member, local, or anonymous class, then the return value is null.
getAnnotatedReceiverType in class Executable
Executable or null if this Executable can not have a receiver parameter
