You can use the `signatures` method of `JavaMethod` and `JavaMultipleMethod`, to inspect the discovered signatures of a method of an object
```python
>>> String = autoclass('java.lang.String')
>>> dir(String)
['CASE_INSENSITIVE_ORDER', '__class__', '__cls_storage', '__delattr__', '__dict__', '__dir__', '__doc__', '__eq__', '__format__', '__ge__', '__getattribute__', '__gt__', '__hash__', '__init__', '__init_subclass__', '__javaclass__', '__javaconstructor__', '__le__', '__lt__', '__module__', '__ne__', '__new__', '__pyx_vtable__', '__reduce__', '__reduce_ex__', '__repr__', '__setattr__', '__setstate__', '__sizeof__', '__str__', '__subclasshook__', '__weakref__', 'charAt', 'checkBounds', 'clone', 'codePointAt', 'codePointBefore', 'codePointCount', 'compareTo', 'compareToIgnoreCase', 'concat', 'contains', 'contentEquals', 'copyValueOf', 'empty', 'endsWith', 'equals', 'equalsIgnoreCase', 'finalize', 'format', 'getBytes', 'getChars', 'getClass', 'hashCode', 'indexOf', 'indexOfSupplementary', 'intern', 'isEmpty', 'join', 'lastIndexOf', 'lastIndexOfSupplementary', 'length', 'matches', 'nonSyncContentEquals', 'notify', 'notifyAll', 'offsetByCodePoints', 'regionMatches', 'registerNatives', 'replace', 'replaceAll', 'replaceFirst', 'split', 'startsWith', 'subSequence', 'substring', 'toCharArray', 'toLowerCase', 'toString', 'toUpperCase', 'trim', 'valueOf', 'wait']
>>> String.format.signatures()
[(['java/util/Locale', 'java/lang/String', 'java/lang/Object...'], 'java/lang/String'), (['java/lang/String', 'java/lang/Object...'], 'java/lang/String')]
```
Each pair contains the list of accepted arguments types, and the returned type.
