Reports reflective access to fields and methods that don't exist or aren't visible.

Example:

After the quick-fix is applied:

With a final class, it's clear if there is a field or method with the specified name in the class.

With non-final classes, it's possible that a subclass has a field or method with that name, so there could be false positives. Use the inspection's settings to get rid of such false positives everywhere or with specific classes.
