     * initialized.  Note that <code>body</code> must not
     * be a constructor but a method.
     *
     * <p>Since the embedded method is wrapped
     * in parameter-conversion code
     * as in <code>CtNewMethod.wrapped()</code>,
     * the constructor parameters are

     * <ul><code>Object method(Object[] params, &lt;type&gt; cvalue)
     * </code></ul>
     *

     * must be:
     *
     * <ul><code>Object method(Object[] params)</code></ul>
     *
     * <p>Although the type of the returned value is <code>Object</code>,
