## Constructor Details

### ReflectiveOperationException

public ReflectiveOperationException()
Constructs a new exception with `null` as its detail message. The cause is not initialized, and may subsequently be initialized by a call to `Throwable.initCause(java.lang.Throwable)`.

### ReflectiveOperationException

public ReflectiveOperationException(String message)
Constructs a new exception with the specified detail message. The cause is not initialized, and may subsequently be initialized by a call to `Throwable.initCause(java.lang.Throwable)`.

Parameters:
  `message` - the detail message. The detail message is saved for later retrieval by the `Throwable.getMessage()` method.

### ReflectiveOperationException

public ReflectiveOperationException(String message, Throwable cause)
Constructs a new exception with the specified detail message and cause.

Note that the detail message associated with `cause` is not automatically incorporated in this exception's detail message.

Parameters:
  `message` - the detail message (which is saved for later retrieval by the `Throwable.getMessage()` method).
  `cause` - the cause (which is saved for later retrieval by the `Throwable.getCause()` method). (A `null` value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)

### ReflectiveOperationException

public ReflectiveOperationException(Throwable cause)
Constructs a new exception with the specified cause and a detail message of `(cause==null ? null : cause.toString())` (which typically contains the class and detail message of `cause`).

Parameters:
  `cause` - the cause (which is saved for later retrieval by the `Throwable.getCause()` method). (A `null` value is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)
