Hello, Please review the changes to address JDK-8169479: java.lang.reflect.Constructor class has wrong api documentation http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~darcy/8169479.0/ Patch inline below. There are a few issues reported in the bug: * The Constructor.toString method fails to state it prints out "throws" information. The implementation already does this and the analogous methods Constructor.toGenericString, Method.toString, etc. explicitly mention throws information already. * The specification of Executable.getDeclaringClass can be overridden to be more precise in the Constructor and Method subclasses. * In Constructor.toGenericString, "return type" is used where "class name" is meant. Thanks, -Joe
