Note Modifier should be used with care. Flags represented as ints are not type safe. A common mistake is to test a modifier flag on a type of reflection object that it does not apply to. It may be the case that a flag in the same position is set to denote some other information.
Use Modifier.isStatic(method.getModifiers()).

You can get the static methods like this:
ReplyDeletefor (Method m : MyClass.class.getMethods()) {
if (Modifier.isStatic(m.getModifiers()))
System.out.println("Static Method: " + m.getName());
}
To flesh out the previous (correct) answer, here is a full code snippet which does what you want (exceptions ignored):
ReplyDeletepublic Method[] getStatics(Class<?> c) {
Method[] all = c.getDeclaredMethods()
List<Method> back = new ArrayList<Method>();
for (Method m : all) {
if (Modifier.isStatic(m.getModifiers())) {
back.add(m);
}
}
return back.toArray(new Method[back.size()]);
}
