    <p>I assume that you want to check the method <code>doSomething(String, Object)</code>.</p> <p>You might try this:</p> <pre><code>boolean methodExists = false; try { obj.doSomething("", null); methodExists = true; } catch (NoSuchMethodError e) { // ignore } </code></pre> <p>This will not work, since the method will be resolved at compile-time.</p> <p>You really need to use reflection for it. And if you have access to the source code of the method you want to call, it's even better to create an interface with the method you want to call.</p> <p>[Update] The additional information is: There is an interface that may exist in two versions, an old one (without the wanted method) and a new one (with the wanted method). Based on that, I suggest the following:</p> <pre><code>package so7058621; import java.lang.reflect.Method; public class NetherHelper { private static final Method getAllowedNether; static { Method m = null; try { m = World.class.getMethod("getAllowedNether"); } catch (Exception e) { // doesn't matter } getAllowedNether = m; } /* Call this method instead from your code. */ public static boolean getAllowedNether(World world) { if (getAllowedNether != null) { try { return ((Boolean) getAllowedNether.invoke(world)).booleanValue(); } catch (Exception e) { // doesn't matter } } return false; } interface World { //boolean getAllowedNether(); } public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println(getAllowedNether(new World() { public boolean getAllowedNether() { return true; } })); } } </code></pre> <p>This code tests whether the method <code>getAllowedNether</code> exists in the interface, so it doesn't matter whether the actual objects have the method or not.</p> <p>If the method <code>getAllowedNether</code> must be called very often and you run into performance problems because of that, I will have to think of a more advanced answer. This one should be fine for now.</p>

    1. COThe method is not in my code but in a linked jar - will this work for that?

    2. COCan you say which method it is? Does the method come from an `interface`, so you can simply query its existence with the `instanceof` operator?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
