Uses of Package
java.lang.reflect
Package
Description
Contains all of the classes for creating user interfaces and for painting
graphics and images.
Contains classes related to developing beans -- components based on
the JavaBeans architecture.
Provides classes that are fundamental to the design of the Java
programming language.
Provides library support for the Java programming language
annotation facility.
The
java.lang.invoke
package provides low-level primitives for interacting
with the Java Virtual Machine.Classes to support module descriptors and creating configurations of modules
by means of resolution and service binding.
Provides classes and interfaces for obtaining reflective information about
classes and objects.
Provides classes and interfaces for supporting the server side of RMI.
Provides the core classes for the Java Management Extensions.
Provides the definition of the ModelMBean classes.
Provides the open data types and Open MBean descriptor classes.
Provides utility classes to allow serializable mappings between SQL types
and data types in the Java programming language.
Provides a set of "lightweight" (all-Java language) components
that, to the maximum degree possible, work the same on all platforms.
Contains classes that make it more convenient for language runtimes to
implement their own language-specific object models and type conversions
by providing basic implementations of some classes as well as various
utilities.
Provides implementation support for building JShell execution engines.
