 * This class is used to access a method or field of an object no matter what

 * and methods is out of the ordinary because this class uses reflection to peel
 * away protection.
 * <p>
 * a.k.a. The "ObjectMolester"
 * <p>
 * Here is an example of using this to access a private member: <br>
 * Given the following class <code>MyClass</code>: <br>
 * 
 * <pre>
 * public class MyClass
 * {
 *   private String name; // private attribute
 * 
 *   // private constructor
 *   private MyClass()
 *   {
 *     super();
 *   }
 * 
 *   // private method
 *   private void setName(String newName)
 *   {
 *     this.name = newName;
 *   }
 * }
 * </pre>
 * 
 * We now want to access the class: <br>
 * 
 * <pre>
 * MyClass myObj = PA.instantiate(MyClass.class);
 * PA.invokeMethod(myObj, &quot;setName(java.lang.String)&quot;, &quot;myNewName&quot;);
 * String name = PA.getValue(myObj, &quot;name&quot;);
 * </pre>
 * 
 * This class extends {@link PrivilegedAccessor} by re-throwing checked
 * {@link Exception}s as {@link RuntimeException}s.
