  - ### 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.)
