   * be true for correct results. Type-encodings are computed as follows:

   * double  -> "D"

   * float   -> "F"

   * int     -> "I"

   * long    -> "J"

   * short   -> "S"

   * void    -> "V"

   * arrays  -> "[" + descriptor format of component type

   * object  -> class format: fully qualified name with '.' replaced by '/'

   *            descriptor format: "L" + class format + ";"

   * </pre>
