Is it possible to "manually" create java.lang.Method instances in Java?

Question

I know this may seem strange, but I was wondering if it is possible to manually create java.lang.Method at runtime.

What about Class<?> ?

Answer 1

At runtime, you can create a Class<?> Using libraries such as:

• ASM (arguably the most popular)
• Javaassist
• BCEL

They may contain a method that you can get, as usual, using reflection.
