Class Reflector

java.lang.Object

org.robolectric.util.reflector.Reflector

public class Reflector
extends Object

Provides accessor objects for efficiently calling otherwise inaccessible (non-public) methods.

This is orders of magnitude faster than using reflection directly.

For example, to access a private method on some class Foo, declare an accessor interface:

class Foo {
  private String getName() { ... }
}

`@`ForType(Foo.class)
interface _Foo_ {
  String getName();
}

reflector(_Foo_.class, new Foo()).getName();
