Method Details

of

public static Type of(Type type,
 Type... typeArguments)

Creates a type with generic parameters.

getElementType

public static @Nullable Type getElementType(Type type)

Returns the element type of a Collection, Iterable (including Queryable and Enumerable), Iterator, Enumerator, or an array.

Returns null if the type is not one of these.

toClass

public static Class toClass(Type type)

toClassArray

public static Class[] toClassArray(Iterable<? extends Expression> arguments)

getComponentType

public static @Nullable Type getComponentType(Type type)

Returns the component type of an array.

box

public static Type box(Type type)

unbox

public static Type unbox(Type type)

isAssignableFrom

public static boolean isAssignableFrom(Type type0,
 Type type)

isArray

public static boolean isArray(Type type)

nthField

public static Field nthField(int ordinal,
 Class clazz)

nthField

public static PseudoField nthField(int ordinal,
 Type clazz)

allAssignable

public static boolean allAssignable(boolean varArgs,
 Class[] parameterTypes,
 Class[] argumentTypes)

lookupMethod

public static Method lookupMethod(Class clazz,
 String methodName,
 Class... argumentTypes)

Finds a method of a given name that accepts a given set of arguments. Includes in its search inherited methods and methods with wider argument types.

Parameters:

clazz - Class against which method is invoked

methodName - Name of method

argumentTypes - Types of arguments

Returns:

A method with the given name that matches the arguments given

Throws:

RuntimeException - if method not found

lookupConstructor

public static Constructor lookupConstructor(Type type,
 Class... argumentTypes)

Finds a constructor of a given class that accepts a given set of arguments. Includes in its search methods with wider argument types.

Parameters:

type - Class against which method is invoked

argumentTypes - Types of arguments

Returns:

A method with the given name that matches the arguments given

Throws:

RuntimeException - if method not found

lookupField

public static Field lookupField(Type type,
 String name)

discard

public static void discard(Object o)

castIfNecessary

public static Expression castIfNecessary(Type returnType,
 Expression expression)

Wraps an expression in a cast if it is not already of the desired type, or cannot be implicitly converted to it.

Parameters:

returnType - Desired type

expression - Expression

Returns:

Expression of desired type

needTypeCast

public static boolean needTypeCast(Type fromType,
 Type toType)

When trying to cast/convert a Type to another Type, it is necessary to pre-check whether the cast operation is needed. We summarize general exceptions, including:

1. target Type toType equals with original Type fromType
2. target Type can be assignable from original Type
3. target Type is an instance of RecordType, since the mapping Java Class might not generated yet

Parameters:

fromType - original type

toType - target type

Returns:

Whether a cast operation is needed

field

public static PseudoField field(Field field)

stripGenerics

public static Type stripGenerics(Type type)
