* According to FieldInfo's documentation, getValue() can throw the
* following exceptions: TargetException, NotSupportedException,
* FieldAccessException and ArgumentException.
*
* TargetException is thrown if the field is non-static and obj is
* a null reference. In our case, the field is non-static (because of
* BindingFlags.Instance) but obj should never be null because of
* null checks in the calling method (i.e. reflectionEquals()).
* I guess we can just throw an unexpected exception.
*
* NotSupportedException is thrown if the field is marked Literal, but
* the field does not have one of the accepted literal types. Literal
* means that the field's value is a compile-time (static or early
* bound) constant. I think this exception can be just eaten because
* constants should always be equal in lhs and rhs and default value
* of isEqual is true.
*
* FieldAccessException is thrown if the caller does not have
* permission to access this field. If this code is fully trusted
* (not sure how to verify this), access restrictions are ignored.
* This means that private fields are accessible. If this code is not
* fully trusted, it can still access private fields if this code
* has been granted ReflectedPermission with the
* ReflectionPermisionFlag.RestrictedMemberAccess flag and if the
* grant set of the non-public members is restricted to the caller's
* grant set, or subset thereof. Whew, that's a mouthful to say!
* I guess it's best just to let FieldAccessException bubble up
* to callers so that user can grant permissions, if desired.
*
* Finally, ArgumentException is thrown if the method is neither
* declared nor inherited by the class of obj. This could happen
* if lhs is a subclass of rhs (or vice-versa) and the field is
* declared in the subclass. In Java, Field.get() would throw
* IllegalArgumentException in this case. In Java version of
* reflectionAppend(), IllegalArgumentException
* bubbles up to reflectionEquals(), where it is dealt with.
* It seems logical that use the same technique in the C#
* version. That is, we allow ArgumentException to bubble up
* to ReflectionEquals() and deal with it there.
