Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`static Class<?>[]`	`argumentTypes(Object... arguments)`	Convert method/constructor call arguments to their corresponding types. `null` values are represented using the `Parameters.NULL_ARGUMENT_TYPE` type
`static boolean`	`parameterTypesMatches(Class<?>[] actualParameterTypes, Class<?>[] declaredParameterTypes, boolean exactMatch)`	Check if an array of actual-parameter-types MATCH an array of declared-parameter-types while taking `null` actual parameter types and `BoxedTypes.boxedType(java.lang.Class<?>)` into consideration (in case `exactMatch` is false)

public static boolean parameterTypesMatches(Class<?>[] actualParameterTypes,
                                            Class<?>[] declaredParameterTypes,
                                            boolean exactMatch)
```
    Check if an array of actual-parameter-types MATCH an array of declared-parameter-types while taking null actual parameter types and BoxedTypes.boxedType(java.lang.Class<?>) into consideration (in case exactMatch is false)
    
    Parameters:
    
    actualParameterTypes - the actual parameter types (deduced from actual parameter values)
    
    declaredParameterTypes - the declared parameter types defined on the Method or Constructor
    
    exactMatch - Must the match be exact (each parameter type MUST match precisely)
    or do we allow testing using BoxedTypes.boxedType(Class), null actualParameterTypes and isAssignableFrom checks to bypass individual type matches
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the parameter types match or not
  - argumentTypes
```
public static Class<?>[] argumentTypes(Object... arguments)
```
    Convert method/constructor call arguments to their corresponding types.
    null values are represented using the Parameters.NULL_ARGUMENT_TYPE type
    
    Parameters:
    
    arguments - arguments
    
    Returns:
    
    the argument types
