42 * An <code>AbstractMethodError</code> is thrown when an application attempts
43 * to access an abstract method. Compilers typically detect this error, but
44 * it can be thrown at run time if the definition of a class has changed
45 * since the application was last compiled. This can also occur when
46 * reflecting on methods.
