What is the proper way to write a fully qualified reference to a method name in Java?
Message[] com.sun.mail.imap.IMAPFolder#addMessages(Message[])Message[] com.sun.mail.imap.IMAPFolder.addMessages(Message[])
If the signature of the method is
Message[] addMessages(Message[] msgs)……and the class name is
IMAPFolder……and it’s in the package
com.sun.map.imap……then the fully qualified method name would be
com.sun.map.imap.IMAPFolder.addMessages(Message[] msgs).Visible class/instance variables share the same pattern, although for the sake of OO design, this is typically discouraged.
Normally, one only concerns themselves with the fully qualified object name, not the method/[instance|class] variable name.
