Retrieve only static fields declared in Java class

Thats Simple , you can use Modifier to check if a field is static or not. Here is a sample code for that kind of task.

public static void printModifiers(Object o) {
    Class c = o.getClass();
    int m = c.getModifiers();
    if (Modifier.isPublic(m))
        System.out.println ("public");
    if (Modifier.isAbstract(m))
        System.out.println ("abstract");
    if (Modifier.isFinal(m))
        System.out.println ("final");
    if(Modifier.isStatic(m))
        System.out.println("static");
}

You can do it like this:

Field[] declaredFields = Test.class.getDeclaredFields();
List<Field> staticFields = new ArrayList<Field>();
for (Field field : declaredFields) {
    if (java.lang.reflect.Modifier.isStatic(field.getModifiers())) {
        staticFields.add(field);
    }
}

I stumbled across this question by accident and felt it needed a Java 8 update using streams:

public static List<Field> getStatics(Class<?> clazz) {
    List<Field> result;

    result = Arrays.stream(clazz.getDeclaredFields())
            // filter out the non-static fields
            .filter(f -> Modifier.isStatic(f.getModifiers()))
            // collect to list
            .collect(toList());

    return result;
}

Obviously, that sample is a bit embelished for readability. In actually, you would likely write it like this:

public static List<Field> getStatics(Class<?> clazz) {
    return Arrays.stream(clazz.getDeclaredFields()).filter(f ->
        Modifier.isStatic(f.getModifiers())).collect(toList());
}
