 /**
- * The AccessibleObject class is the base class for Field, Method and
- * Constructor objects.  It provides the ability to flag a reflected
- * object as suppressing default Java language access control checks
- * when it is used. The access checks -- <em>module boundaries</em>,
- * public, default (package) access, protected, and private members --
- * are performed when Fields, Methods or Constructors are used to set
- * or get fields, to invoke methods or to create and initialize new
- * instances of classes, respectively. Unlike access control specified
- * in the <cite>The Java&trade; Language Specification</cite> and
- * <cite>The Java Virtual Machine Specification</cite>, access checks
- * with reflected objects assume {@link Module#canRead readability}.
- *
- * <p>Setting the {@code accessible} flag in a reflected object
- * permits sophisticated applications with sufficient privilege, such
- * as Java Object Serialization or other persistence mechanisms, to
- * manipulate objects in a manner that would normally be prohibited.
- *
- * <p>By default, a reflected object is <em>not</em> accessible.

+ * The {@code AccessibleObject} class is the base class for {@code Field},
+ * {@code Method}, and {@code Constructor} objects (known as <em>reflected
+ * objects</em>). It provides the ability to flag a reflected object as
+ * suppressing checks for Java language access control when it is used. This
+ * permits sophisticated applications with sufficient privilege, such as Java
+ * Object Serialization or other persistence mechanisms, to manipulate objects
+ * in a manner that would normally be prohibited.
+ *
+ * <p> Java language access control prevents use of private members outside
+ * their class; package access members outside their package; protected members
+ * outside their package or subclasses; and public members outside their
+ * module unless they are declared in an {@link Module#isExported(String,Module)
+ * exported} package and the user {@link Module#canRead reads} their module. By
+ * default, Java language access control is enforced (with one variation) when
+ * {@code Field}s, {@code Method}s, or {@code Constructor}s are used to get or
+ * set fields, to invoke methods, or to create and initialize new instances of
+ * classes, respectively. Every reflected object checks that the code using it
+ * is in an appropriate class, package, or module. </p>
+ *
+ * <p> The one variation from Java language access control is that the checks
+ * by reflected objects assume readability. That is, the module containing
+ * the use of a reflected object is assumed to read the module in which
+ * the underlying field, method, or constructor is declared. </p>
+ *
+ * <p> Whether the checks for Java language access control can be suppressed
+ * (and thus, whether access can be enabled) depends on whether the reflected
+ * object corresponds to a member in an exported or open package
+ * (see {@link #setAccessible(boolean)}). </p>
