    • Method Detail

      • asElement

        Element asElement(TypeMirror t)
        Returns the element corresponding to a type. The type may be a DeclaredType or TypeVariable. Returns null if the type is not one with a corresponding element.
        Returns:
        the element corresponding to the given type
      • isSameType

        boolean isSameType(TypeMirror t1,
                         TypeMirror t2)
        Tests whether two TypeMirror objects represent the same type.

        Caveat: if either of the arguments to this method represents a wildcard, this method will return false. As a consequence, a wildcard is not the same type as itself. This might be surprising at first, but makes sense once you consider that an example like this must be rejected by the compiler:

           List<?> list = new ArrayList<Object>();
           list.add(list.get(0));
         
        Parameters:
        t1 - the first type
        t2 - the second type
        Returns:
        true if and only if the two types are the same

                        TypeMirror t2)

        Returns:
        true if and only if the first type is a subtype of the second

        Parameters:
        componentType - the component type
        Returns:
        an array type with the specified component type.
        Throws:

      • getWildcardType

        WildcardType getWildcardType(TypeMirror extendsBound,
                                   TypeMirror superBound)
        Returns a new wildcard type argument. Either of the wildcard's bounds may be specified, or neither, but not both.
        Parameters:
        extendsBound - the extends (upper) bound, or null if none
        superBound - the super (lower) bound, or null if none
        Returns:
        a new wildcard
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if bounds are not valid
      • getDeclaredType

        DeclaredType getDeclaredType(TypeElement typeElem,
                                   TypeMirror... typeArgs)
        Returns the type corresponding to a type element and actual type arguments. Given the type element for Set and the type mirror for String, for example, this method may be used to get the parameterized type Set<String>.

        The number of type arguments must either equal the number of the type element's formal type parameters, or must be zero. If zero, and if the type element is generic, then the type element's raw type is returned.

        If a parameterized type is being returned, its type element must not be contained within a generic outer class. The parameterized type Outer<String>.Inner<Number>, for example, may be constructed by first using this method to get the type Outer<String>, and then invoking getDeclaredType(DeclaredType, TypeElement, TypeMirror...).

        Parameters:
        typeElem - the type element
        typeArgs - the actual type arguments
        Returns:
        the type corresponding to the type element and actual type arguments
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if too many or too few type arguments are given, or if an inappropriate type argument or type element is provided
      • getDeclaredType

        DeclaredType getDeclaredType(DeclaredType containing,
                                   TypeElement typeElem,
                                   TypeMirror... typeArgs)
        Returns the type corresponding to a type element and actual type arguments, given a containing type of which it is a member. The parameterized type Outer<String>.Inner<Number>, for example, may be constructed by first using getDeclaredType(TypeElement, TypeMirror...) to get the type Outer<String>, and then invoking this method.

        If the containing type is a parameterized type, the number of type arguments must equal the number of typeElem's formal type parameters. If it is not parameterized or if it is null, this method is equivalent to getDeclaredType(typeElem, typeArgs).

        Parameters:
        containing - the containing type, or null if none
        typeElem - the type element
        typeArgs - the actual type arguments
        Returns:
        the type corresponding to the type element and actual type arguments, contained within the given type
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if too many or too few type arguments are given, or if an inappropriate type argument, type element, or containing type is provided
      • asMemberOf

        TypeMirror asMemberOf(DeclaredType containing,
                            Element element)
        Returns the type of an element when that element is viewed as a member of, or otherwise directly contained by, a given type. For example, when viewed as a member of the parameterized type Set<String>, the Set.add method is an ExecutableType whose parameter is of type String.
        Parameters:
        containing - the containing type
        element - the element
        Returns:
        the type of the element as viewed from the containing type
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if the element is not a valid one for the given type
