Class getDeclaredConstructors() in Java

getDeclaredConstructors(): This method is available in the java.lang.Class of Java.

Syntax:

Constructor[] java.lang.Class.getDeclaredConstructors() throws SecurityException

This method returns an array of Constructor objects reflecting all the constructors declared by the class represented by this Class object. These are public, protected, default(package) access, and private constructors. The elements in the array returned are not sorted or in any particular order. If the class has a default constructor, it is included in the returned array.

This method returns an array of length 0 if this Class object represents an interface, a primitive type, an array class, or void.

Parameters: NA

Returns: the array of Constructor objects representing all the declared constructors of this class.

Throws:

1. SecurityException - If a security manager, s, is present and any of the following conditions is met:

a). the caller's class loader is not the same as the class loader of this class and invocation of the s.checkPermission method with RuntimePermission("accessDeclaredMembers")denies access to the declared constructors within this class.

b). the caller's class loader is not the same as or an ancestor of the class loader for the current class and invocation of s.checkPackageAccess() denies access to the package of this class.

Approach

Java

package com.Class;

import java.util.Arrays;

public class ClassgetDeclaredConstructors {

    public static void main(String[] args)
throws ClassNotFoundException {

        @SuppressWarnings("rawtypes")
        Class class1 = Class.forName("java.lang.String");

        System.out.println(Arrays.toString(class1.getDeclaredConstructors()));
    }
}

Output:

[public java.lang.String(byte[]), public java.lang.String(byte[],int,int), public java.lang.String(byte[],java.nio.charset.Charset), public java.lang.String(byte[],java.lang.String) throws java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException, public java.lang.String(byte[],int,int,java.nio.charset.Charset), java.lang.String(char[],int,int,java.lang.Void), java.lang.String(java.lang.AbstractStringBuilder,java.lang.Void), public java.lang.String(java.lang.StringBuilder), public java.lang.String(java.lang.StringBuffer), java.lang.String(byte[],byte), public java.lang.String(char[],int,int), public java.lang.String(char[]), public java.lang.String(java.lang.String), public java.lang.String(), public java.lang.String(byte[],int,int,java.lang.String) throws java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException, public java.lang.String(byte[],int), public java.lang.String(byte[],int,int,int), public java.lang.String(int[],int,int)]
