public class Modifier extends Object
static methods and
 constants to decode class and member access modifiers.  The sets of
 modifiers are represented as integers with distinct bit positions
 representing different modifiers.  The values for the constants
 representing the modifiers are taken from the tables in sections 4.1, 4.4, 4.5, and 4.7 of
 The Java™ Virtual Machine Specification.Class.getModifiers(),

 interface  
 The interface modifier discussed in this class is
 not a true modifier in the Java language and it appears after
 all other modifiers listed by this method.  This method may
 return a string of modifiers that are not valid modifiers of a
 Java entity; in other words, no checking is done on the
 possible validity of the combination of modifiers represented
 by the input.
 Note that to perform such checking for a known kind of entity,
 such as a constructor or method, first AND the argument of
 toString with the appropriate mask from a method like
 constructorModifiers() or methodModifiers().mod - a set of modifiersmodpublic static int classModifiers()
