How to invoke a Method with tasty-query #348

When I have found a Method with tasty-query, how do I invoke it? With Java you use Java Reflection, with Scala 2 you use Scala2 Reflection How to invoke a Method with Scala 3 tasty-query? |

tasty-query does not have any way to invoke methods. It only supports analysing the structure and semantics of definitions. To invoke definitions, you would use Java reflection, and perhaps you could create a lookup method that converts a tasty-query Symbol to a java reflect Method. |

Thank you for the response =) I have already solved it with Java Reflection... it would be nice, when tasty-query would support it out of the box |

It is clearly out of scope for tasty-query. Notably, it is designed to analyze arbitrary classpaths, not just the running application, so it doesn't even make sense to offer that as a feature of tasty-query. |

It is one piece that is missing in scala 3. To invoke methods, fields and constructors, or I haven't found it yet. I tried Scala Macros, but it doesn't work. |
