FEST-Reflect is a Java library that provides a Fluent Interface-based API that simplifies the usage of Java Reflection, resulting in improved readability and type safety. It supports access to constructors, methods and fields.

We are proud to announce that FEST-Reflect 0.4 is out!

This new release provides support for accessing static fields and invoking static methods:

int count = staticField("count").ofType(int.class)  
.in(Person.class)
.get();

You can download the latest release here (file fest-reflect-0.4.zip.) FEST-Reflect requires Java SE 5.0 or later.
