getPublicDeclaringClassback to summary
public Class<?> getPublicDeclaringClass()

Find the first public class in the method's declaring class hierarchy that declares this method.

Sometimes the reflective method discovery logic finds a suitable method that can easily be called via reflection but cannot be called from generated code when compiling the expression because of visibility restrictions. For example, if a non-public class overrides toString(), this helper method will traverse up the type hierarchy to find the first public type that declares the method (if there is one). For toString(), it may traverse as far as Object.
