1.How to know the method which is calling this method?
Reflection.getCallerClass(realFramesToSkip) //here realFramesToSkip is how many level you want to go up, for immediate caller you should use 1, if you want a method 1 level up then 2 etc.
2. How to get the parameters of a method in class?
public class Employee{
private String strFirstName, strLastName;
public void setStrFirstName(String strFirstName){
this.strFirstName = strFirstName;
}
public String getStrFirstName(){
return strFirstName;
}
}
public class Demo{
public static void main(String[] args){
Class classEmp = Employee.class;
Method methodSetstrFirstName = classEmp.getMethod("setStrFirstName");
Parameter[] params = method.getParameters();
for(int m=0; m<params.length;m++)
{
Parameter param = params[m];
String paramName = param.getName();
String paramType = param.getType().getSimpleName();
System.out.println("Name:"+paramName+" Type:"+paramType);
}
}
Output:
Name:setStrFirstName Type:String
Note: getParameters method on class Method is available only from java8, refer the docs here.
