How would one find out if a method is static using Java's reflection API?

If I didn't know that the sleep method on java.lang.Thread 开发者_StackOverflowwas static, how could I find out?

Use getModifiers on the Method object:

Method meth = ...;
if (Modifiers.isStatic(meth.getModifiers())) {
  // method is static
}

use

 (myclass.getModifiers() & Modifier.STATIC) != 0
