Constructor isVarArgs() method in Java with Examples

The isVarArgs() method of java.lang.reflect.Constructor class is used to return the boolean value true if this Constructor can take a variable number of arguments as parameters else method will return false.VarArgs allows the constructor to accept a number of arguments. using VarArgs is a better approach to pass arguments than array when it is not known how many arguments to pass in the constructor.

Syntax:

public boolean isVarArgs()

Parameters: This method accepts nothing.



Return: This method returns true if and only if this executable was declared to take a variable number of arguments.
