Description Ondrej Rypacek 2004-08-10 16:28:11 UTC 
I'm trying to retrieve the main(String[]) method
by the following code from a class that definitely
contains a main method.

    public static boolean hasMainMethod(JavaClass
cls) {

        JavaModelPackage pkg =
(JavaModelPackage)cls.refImmediatePackage();  
        return cls.getMethod("main", 
                            
Collections.singletonList(pkg.getArray().resolveArray(TestUtil.getStringType(pkg))),
                             false) != null;
    }

the cls.getMethod... call always returns null.

I don't know, what TestUtil.getStringType(pkg) exactly does, but it
worksforme.
Method me = clazz.getMethod("main",
Collections.singletonList(pkg.getArray().resolveArray(pkg.getType().resolve("java.lang.String"))),
false); successfuly returned main method.
Comment 3 Ondrej Rypacek 2004-08-11 14:12:02 UTC 
Sorry, I forgot. getStringType does exactly what you have there... 
...with a subtle difference though:
pkg.getType().resolve("String")

It remained there from my previous attempts to get it working.
Previously neither with "String" nor with "java.lang.String" was
working. Now, with the latest version, "java.lang.String" works fine. 

Thanks anyway for the evaluation. It always helps to get somebody else
have a look at a problem :-)
