/**
 * Provides simply, convenient methods to invoke methods by
 * name.  This class is used to consolidate reflection needed to
 * access methods specific to Sun's JVM or to remain backward
 * compatible while supporting method in newer JVMs.<p>
 *
 * Most methods of this class invoke the first method on the
 * specified object that matches the name and number of
 * parameters.  The type of the parameters are not considered, so
 * do not attempt to use this class to invoke overloaded
 * methods.<p>
 *
 * Instances of this class are not synchronized.<p>
