How to use getMethod() with primitive types?

Solution 1:

There's just an int.class.

Class[] types = { int.class, Object.class };

An alternative is Integer.TYPE.

Class[] types = { Integer.TYPE, Object.class };

The same applies on other primitives.

Solution 2:

The parameter of the method is a primitive short not an Object Short.

Reflection will not find the method because you specified an object short. The parameters in getMethod() have to match exactly.

EDIT: The question was changed. Initially, the question was to find a method that takes a single primitive short.
