>
> The method FieldOrMethod.getClassName(ConstantPoolGen cpg) is deprecated 
> because it can return java.lang.Object for arrays.
> Now the method is defined in the superclass for FieldInstructions and 
> InvokeInstructions.
> In the case of InvokeInstructions, can these ever reference an Array?
> If not, then the method could be overridden in the InvokeInstruction class.
> This new method would throw an unchecked Exception if detects an Array.
> This would change the behaviour of the method for subclasses of 
> InvokeInstruction, but they would not need to be updated.
