Static java method invocation in step

[a1shadows]

Right not it looks like it is only possible to invoke instance methods from objects as part of a step. Is it also possible to invoke static methods like System#currentTimeMillis?

If not, I can look into adding this as a feature

@authorjapps what are your thoughts

Hello mate @a1shadows ,
It should straight away work even now as uses Reflection.
But Happy for you to look at and fix it via a PR if this doesn't work.
My suggestion would be to pick this after the Retry comment you raised has been fixed please.
Many Thanks

@authorjapps Going by the code in JavaMethodExecutorImpl, the code always fetches an instance from the injector before calling a method. I don't think this will work for static methods

Got you @a1shadows , let's get this fixed.
I remember in some instances it worked in the past, but may be we wrapped it by a Class n nonstatic method.
Let's make it better from usability point.
Better to fix. Would advise a separate PR for this.

Thanks once again for your diligence in looking into it.

@a1shadows, I think you can pick this 1st(when you are ready) because the other issue/feature in still under discussion.

@authorjapps Sure, I'll start looking into this
