How do i get all the public methods of a model?

Question

I need get all the gets() of a model in my code.

Ex:

Model.java

private int var1;
private int var2;
private int var3;

public getVar1()...
public getVar2()...
public getVar3()...

IMO this needs more clarification? do you want to use `Refelction` or what? — David Kroukamp, Aug 21 '12 at 21:20
Although on second thought, is the fact this has a `gwt` label relevant? — biziclop, Aug 21 '12 at 21:27
@biziclop Apparently, GWT does not support reflection. So you have to use a work around. So GWT tag is relevant. — jn1kk, Aug 21 '12 at 21:33

Something like this, maybe?

MyClass myClass = new MyClass();
Class objClass = myClass.getClass();
Set<Method> getMethods = new HashSet<Method>();

for (Method method : objClass.getMethods()) {
    if(method.getName().contains("getVar")) {
        getMethods.add(method);
    }
}

EDIT:

above is wrong! I did not see the GWT tag. Apparently, there is a good API for reflection for GWT, and you may be able to use my code:

I'm pretty sure GWT doesn't support Reflection on client-side, so this would have to be done server-side. – Roddy of the Frozen Peas Aug 21 '12 at 21:24
@RoddyoftheFrozenPeas, you know what, I didn't even see the GWT tag. Will delete in a min. – jn1kk Aug 21 '12 at 21:28
Neither have I and I even voted for closing. Pffft. – biziclop Aug 21 '12 at 21:32
