XmlConfiguration includes factory methods from superclasses

[GoogleCodeExporter]

 If a Matcher implementation subclasses another matcher implementation
(e.g. a subclass of AnyOf that passes specific matchers to the AnyOf
constructor), then the @Factory methods from the parent class will be
included during sugar generation. This can lead to conflicts between
methods imported from the Matchers and CoreMatchers sugar classes when used
in the same code.

Perhaps the ReflectiveFactoryReader should be calling
Class.getDeclaredMethods() instead of Class.getMethods().

I've worked around this by delegating to the core AnyOf matcher instead of
subclassing, but my preferred implementation would have been to subclass.

Just to be clear, I don't mean conflict between Matchers and CoreMatchers, I 
mean
conflict between user-generated sugar and the sugar in Matchers/CoreMatchers 
(e.g.
"anyOf()").

Do you get the conflict when you do both "import static Matchers.*" and "import
static SomethingElse.*".  In which case, the solution is to import the methods 
you
want explicitly.
