            Method[] mthd = obj1.getMethods(); 
            Method setValueMethodObject = mthd[0]; 
  
            int mdfr = setValueMethodObject.getModifiers();   //get the modifier
 
            System.out.println("Modifier of setValueDemo():");

        } 
        catch (Exception e) { 
            e.printStackTrace(); 
        } 
    } 
  
    class MyDemo { 
       
        public int setValueDemo() 
        { 
            System.out.println("setValueDemo");

      Method[] mthd = DemoX1.class.getMethods();
      for (Method mthd1 : mthd) {
         System.out.println("Modifier Name : " + Modifier.toString(mthd1.getModifiers())); //get the modifier
         System.out.println("Method  Name : " + mthd1.toGenericString());
      }
   }
}

class  DemoX1 {
   private String Field;
