[Java] Class ReflectionMethodInvoker

  org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.ReflectionMethodInvoker

public class ReflectionMethodInvoker
extends java.lang.Object

Utility class to call methods through reflection, and falls through using the Invoker to call the method if it fails. The class is particularly useful for Groovy classes implementing GroovyInterceptable, since it is not possible to call any method from this class, because it is intercepted by the invokeMethod() method.
