I answered that in the other thread, quoting you precisely saying exactly that.

A Java method is not an instance of the Java class java.lang.reflect.Method. A 
method is not an instance of anything in Java. You saying that I "finally admit 
to this truth" doesn't change what I am saying, nor the truth.

You are mistaken. I have pointed you to the correct documentation. 

Quite frankly I am mystified by your obstinance. The truth is the truth. Why is 
it unpleasant to learn the truth? You seem to have so much invested in 
promulgating this canard that a method is an instance of a class, or that it is 
a class, or that a method is an instance of 'Method'. None of those statements 
are true.
