+ * 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>
