Description

In release 1.4 and 1.4.1 invoking invokeMethod with the Class[] parameter null
leads to a NullPointerException in getMatchingAccessibleMethod. This is not
coherent with the java.lang.Class.getMethod documentation where null Class[]
parameter is considered like an empty one.

Workaroud : pass empty array instead of null
