Details

_getMethodList only returns the methods for a class that have a state of NEW, OVERRIDE, or DISABLED. It does not return inherited methods or methods that are delegated to other classes.

The list contains encoded method descriptions; each item in the list represents one method. The item's name is the method name. Do not attempt to delete or modify the list (it has the NODELETE and NOUPDATE list attributes).

By comparison, the Object Class: _getMethods method in the Object class creates a new list and copies the contents of the _getMethodList list into it.
