    attrName - the attribute name
    
    prefix - the prefix; one of is, get and set
    
    Returns:
    
    the method name
    
    See Also:
    
    toAttributeName(java.lang.String)
  - isAttribute
```
public static final boolean isAttribute(String methodName)
```
    Tests if a method name is an attribute, i.e., prefixing with is, get or set. Caller could then test if it is a setter or getter by charAt(0)=='s'.
    Note 'set' is considered as an attribute, whose name is an empty string.
    
    Parameters:
    
    methodName - the method name to test
    
    Returns:
    
    true if it is setter or getter
  - toAttributeName
```
public static final String toAttributeName(String methodName)
```
    Converts a method name to an attribute name by removing the prefix is, get or set, or null if it doesn't start with is, get or set.
    The code is optimized for better performance.
    
    Parameters:
    
    methodName - the method name
    
    Returns:
    
    the attribute name; null if it is not an attribute name

  - getMethodBySignature
```
public static final Method getMethodBySignature(Class<?> cls,
                                                String signature,
                                                Collection<String> params,

                                         throws NoSuchMethodException,
                                                ClassNotFoundException
```
    Gets the method based on the signature with a class resolver. It also returns the parameter names to the params list.
    Like getMethodInPublic(Class, String, Class[]), it returns only public method in a public class/interface.
    For example, "find(java.lang.String name)" will return the method with one String-typed argument and params will hold "name". The return type is optional (actually ignored).
    If params is null, the parameter names are not returned and the signature could be simplified as "find(java.lang.String)".
    A cache mechanism is implemented, so you don't need to cache it again in the caller.
    
    Parameters:
    
    cls - the class to look
    
    signature - the method signature; the return type is optional.
    Notice that the argument's type must be a full-qualified class name, unless its package is java.lang or it can be resolved by resolver.
    
    params - the collection to hold the parameter names returned; null means no parameter names to return
    
    resolver - the class resolver used to resolve the class specified in the signature. Ignored if null.
    
    Throws:
    
    NoSuchMethodException
    
    ClassNotFoundException

                                      throws NoSuchMethodException
```
    Gets the method that is declared in a public class/interface.
    Class.getMethod returns a public method but the class itself might not be public. However, in many cases, that class also implements a public interface or class.

                                   throws NoSuchMethodException
```
    Gets one of the close methods -- a close method is a method with the same name and the compatible argument type. By compatible we mean the real method's argument type is the same as or a superclass of the specified one.
    It might not be the best fit one, unless there is a method whose argument types are exactly argTypes.
    You might specify the exact number in argTypes. If any of them is unknown, use null. Example, in the following, the first argument could be anything and the second is anything deriving from MyClass:
    new Class[] {null, MyClass.class}
    Note: if an argument accepts int, then Integer is considered as compatible (unlike Class.getMethod). So are long, byte...
    A cache mechanism is implemented, so you don't need to cache it again in the caller.
    
    Parameters:
    
    cls - the class to locate the method
    
    name - the method name
    
    argTypes - an array of the argument classes; null to denote no argument at all (i.e., exact match). Any argTypes[i] could be null to denote any class.
    
    Returns:
    
    the method
    
    Throws:
    
    NoSuchMethodException - if the method is not found
  - getCloseMethodBySubclass
```
public static final Method getCloseMethodBySubclass(Class<?> cls,
                                                    String name,
                                                    Class<?>[] argTypes)
                                             throws NoSuchMethodException
```
    Like getCloseMethod(java.lang.Class<?>, java.lang.String, java.lang.Class<?>[]) to get a 'close' method, but it look for subclass of the argument (instead of superclass). In other words, it looks for the method whose argument type is the same as or a subclass of the specified one.
    
    Throws:
    
    NoSuchMethodException
  - getCloseMethods
```
public static final Method[] getCloseMethods(Class<?> cls,
                                             String name,
                                             Class<?>[] argTypes)
```
    Returns all close methods that match the specified condition, or a zero-length array if none is found.
    Unlike getCloseMethod(java.lang.Class<?>, java.lang.String, java.lang.Class<?>[]), we don't cache the searched result, and it won't throw any exception.
  - getCloseMethodsBySubclass

public static final Method[] getCloseMethodsBySubclass(Class<?> cls,
                                                       String name,
                                                       Class<?>[] argTypes)
```
    Like getCloseMethods(java.lang.Class<?>, java.lang.String, java.lang.Class<?>[]) to get all 'close' methods, but it look for subclass of the argument (instead of superclass). In other words, it looks for the method whose argument type is the same as or a subclass of the specified one.
  - getAccessibleObject
```
public static final AccessibleObject getAccessibleObject(Class<?> cls,
                                                         String name,
                                                         Class<?>[] argTypes,
                                                         int flags)
                                                  throws NoSuchMethodException
```
    Gets the specified accessible object, either a method or a field, by searching the specified name.
    The search sequence is: (assume field name is body)>
    getBody(...)
    isBody(...)
    body(...)
    body
    If B_SET is specified, setBody(...) is searched instead of getBody(...) and isBody(...). The field is searched only if argsType.length is 0 or 1.
    Note: it uses getCloseMethod(java.lang.Class<?>, java.lang.String, java.lang.Class<?>[]) to get the method.
    A cache mechanism is implemented, so you don't need to cache it again in the caller.
    
    Parameters:
    
    cls - the class to find
    
    name - the name of the accessible object
    
    argTypes - the parameter type of the method to find
    
    flags - a combination of B_xxx or zero
    
    Returns:
    
    the accessible object; either Field or Method
    
    Throws:
    
    NoSuchMethodException - if neither the set method of specified field nor the field itself not found
    
    SecurityException - if access to the information is denied
  - getAnyMethod
```
public static final Method getAnyMethod(Class<?> cls,
                                        String name,
                                        Class<?>[] argTypes)
                                 throws NoSuchMethodException
```
    Gets the specified method by searching all methods including any access control and any base class. Note: you rarely need to call this method. In most cases, Class.getMethod, getCloseMethod(java.lang.Class<?>, java.lang.String, java.lang.Class<?>[]), and getMethodInPublic(java.lang.Class<?>, java.lang.String, java.lang.Class<?>[]) are what you need.
    The search sequence is: this class's methods, and then the superclass's methods.
    Note: public methods don't be treated different. If the caller wants to search public methods first, it has to call Class.getMethod first.
    
    Parameters:
    
    cls - the class to search
    
    name - the method name
    
    argTypes - the parameter array of types
    
    Returns:
    
    the Method object
    
    Throws:
    
    NoSuchMethodException - if a matching method is not found.
    
    SecurityException - if access to the information is denied.

                               throws NoSuchFieldException
```
    Gets the specified field by searching all fields including any access control and any base class. The search sequence is: this class's fields, and then the superclass's fields.
    Note: public fields don't be treated different. If the caller wants to search public fields first, it has to call Class.getField first.
    
    Parameters:
    
    cls - the class to search
    
    name - the field name
    
    Returns:
    
    the Field object
    
    Throws:
    
    NoSuchFieldException - if a matching field is not found.
    
    SecurityException - if access to the information is denied.

                                               Class<?>[] clsToCheck)
```
    Searches thru each element of the specified array of classes, and returns classes that are super-classes (or equal) of the specified class.
    
    Parameters:
    
    cls - the specified class; null is not allowed
    
    clsToCheck - the class array to check; null is acceptable
    
    Returns:
    
    a subset of clsToCheck that are super-class of cls; null if no one qualified

```
public static final boolean isPrimitiveWrapper(Class<?> cls)
```
    Check whether the specified class is a primitive or a primitive wrapper.
  - isNumeric
```
public static final boolean isNumeric(Class<?> cls,
                                      boolean extend)
```
    Checks whether the specified class is a numeric class.
    
    Parameters:
    
    extend - whether to consider Date, char, boolean, Character and Boolean as a numeric object.
  - coerce
```
public static Object coerce(Class<?> cls,
                            Object val)
                     throws ClassCastException
```
    Converts an object to the specified class. It is the same as coerce(cls, val, true).
    
    Parameters:
    
    val - the value.
    
    Throws:
    
    ClassCastException - if failed to convert

                     throws ClassCastException
```
    Converts to the specified type.
    
    Parameters:
    
    nullable - whether the result could be null. If false, 0 is used for number, the default constructor is used for others. coerce(Class, Object) is a special case that is equivalent to nullable=true.
    
    Throws:
    
    ClassCastException - if failed to convert
