/**
 * The Constructor class represents a constructor of a class. It also allows
 * dynamic creation of an object, via reflection. Invocation on Constructor
 * objects knows how to do widening conversions, but throws
 * {@link IllegalArgumentException} if a narrowing conversion would be
 * necessary. You can query for information on this Constructor regardless
 * of location, but construction access may be limited by Java language
 * access controls. If you can't do it in the compiler, you can't normally
 * do it here either.<p>
 *
 * <B>Note:</B> This class returns and accepts types as Classes, even
 * primitive types; there are Class types defined that represent each
 * different primitive type.  They are <code>java.lang.Boolean.TYPE,
 * java.lang.Byte.TYPE,</code>, also available as <code>boolean.class,
 * byte.class</code>, etc.  These are not to be confused with the
 * classes <code>java.lang.Boolean, java.lang.Byte</code>, etc., which are
 * real classes.<p>
 *
 * Also note that this is not a serializable class.  It is entirely feasible
 * to make it serializable using the Externalizable interface, but this is
 * on Sun, not me.
