Description Genady Beryozkin CLA 2004-05-29 03:02:57 EDT 
String[] getParameterTypes()   -> throws nothing

String[] getParameterNames() throws JavaModelException
String getReturnType() throws JavaModelException

It looks like the first method uses cached representation, which may change.
If it isn't too late to break the API, it maybe worth it.
Comment 1 Philipe Mulet CLA 2004-05-31 18:42:32 EDT 
These API cannot be changed. The rationale for the 1st one not throwing any 
exception is that this information is part of the handle to the method, where 
the rest requires to reach the method, and thus it may not be accessible 
(exception case).
