Problem about type casting

Question

Hello friends. I m getting some problem related to casting. I m working on web service testing software where my test tool file generates the contents of the web service which i entered runtime. iI can use java.lang.reflect . How do v get the class name of array? So that i can use the Classname.getDeclaredMethods();.
Please give me suggetion.

Maybe you are having problems because getDeclaredMethods() returns an empty array for array classes?import java.lang.reflect.Method;
public class ArrayMethods {
     static void dumpMethods(Class c) {
          System.out.println();
          Method[] ma;
          do {
               System.out.println(c.toString());
               ma = c.getDeclaredMethods();
               for(int i=0;i<ma.length;++i) {
                    System.out.println(ma.toString());
               c = c.getSuperclass();
          } while (ma.length==0);
     public static void main(String[] arg) throws Exception {
          dumpMethods(Integer.class);
          dumpMethods(int[].class);
          dumpMethods(Class.forName("[I"));
          dumpMethods(Class.forName("[[I"));
          dumpMethods(Class.forName("[Ljava.lang.Object;"));
