Method Detail

getName

public String getName()

Description copied from interface: TypeInfo

Get the type name.

Specified by:

getName in interface TypeInfo

Returns:

the name of the type

getImplementationName

public String getImplementationName()

Description copied from interface: TypeInfo

Get the implementation name.

Specified by:

getImplementationName in interface TypeInfo

Returns:

the implementation name of the type. It is typically the class name of the type.

getProxiedClass

public Class getProxiedClass()

setProxiedClass

public void setProxiedClass(Class proxiedClass)

getElementType

public TypeInfo getElementType()

Description copied from interface: TypeInfo

If this type is a collection of element type, this method returns the TypeInfo of the element type. Otherwise, this method return false.

Specified by:

getElementType in interface TypeInfo

Returns:

the TypeInfo of element type. Otherwise, return null.

See Also:

TypeInfo.getElementType()

isAssignableFrom

public boolean isAssignableFrom(TypeInfo other)

Description copied from interface: TypeInfo

This method tests if this type is asssignable from other type. This method should also handle auto-boxing and auto-unboxing for primitive types.

Specified by:

isAssignableFrom in interface TypeInfo

Parameters:

other - - the type to assign to this type.

Returns:

true if the test condition passes.

isCompatible

public boolean isCompatible(TypeInfo other)

Description copied from interface: TypeInfo

This method returns true if one type is assignable to another. This implies that one type is convertible to another through reference widening or narrowing. For primitive type, this method can also return true if the two types can be promoted into a common type. This method should also handle auto-boxing and auto-unboxing for primitive types.

Specified by:

isCompatible in interface TypeInfo

Parameters:

other - - the other type to compare with this type.

Returns:

true if the test condition passes.

isWideningTypeOf

public boolean isWideningTypeOf(TypeInfo other)

Description copied from interface: TypeInfo

This method returns true if one type can be widening to another. This typically checks using referencing widening where this type is a superclass of other type. For primitive type, this method can also return true if the other type can be promoted to this type using java primitive widening. This method should also handle auto-boxing and auto-unboxing for primitive types.

Specified by:

isWideningTypeOf in interface TypeInfo

Parameters:

other - - the other type to compare with this type.

Returns:

true if the test condition passes.

getField

public FieldInfo getField(TypeRetriever retriever,
                          String name)

Description copied from interface: TypeInfo

Get the field belongs to this type.

Specified by:

getField in interface TypeInfo

Parameters:

retriever - - A TypeRetriever for retriever type information.

name - - the name of the field

Returns:

A FieldInfo object representing the field.

getMethod

                            String name,
                            List parameters)

getMethod

public MethodInfo getMethod(TypeRetriever retriever,
                            String name,
                            List parameters,
                            boolean staticOnly)

Description copied from interface: TypeInfo

Get the method belongs to this type.

Specified by:

getMethod in interface TypeInfo

Parameters:

retriever - - A TypeRetriever for retriever type information.

name - - the name of the method

Returns:

A MethodInfo object representing the method.

getAllMethods

public Set getAllMethods(TypeRetriever retriever)

Description copied from interface: TypeInfo

Get all methods belong to this type.

Specified by:

getAllMethods in interface TypeInfo

Parameters:

retriever - - A TypeRetriever for retriever type information.

Returns:

A Set of MethodInfo objects representing all methods.

getAccessibility

public int getAccessibility()

Description copied from interface: TypeInfo

Specified by:

getAccessibility in interface TypeInfo

Returns:

Return the value of AccessibilityPrivate, AccessibilityPublic, or AccessibilitySafe.

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

getPropertyResolver

public PropertyResolver getPropertyResolver()

Description copied from interface: TypeInfo

Create a PropertyResolver that can be used to resolve property name.

Specified by:

getPropertyResolver in interface TypeInfo

resolvePropertyForName in interface PropertyResolver

findAppropriateMethodInfo

public MethodInfo findAppropriateMethodInfo(TypeRetriever retriever,
                                            String name,
