getAnnotatedLowerBounds	back to summary
public AnnotatedType[] getAnnotatedLowerBounds() Returns the potentially annotated lower bounds of this wildcard type. If no lower bound is explicitly declared, the lower bound is the type of null. In this case, a zero length array is returned. API Note While to date a wildcard may have at most one lower bound, callers of this method should be written to accommodate multiple bounds. Returns:AnnotatedType[] the potentially annotated lower bounds of this wildcard type or an empty array if no lower bound is explicitly declared. See Also `WildcardType#getLowerBounds()`

public AnnotatedType[] getAnnotatedLowerBounds()

Returns the potentially annotated lower bounds of this wildcard type. If no lower bound is explicitly declared, the lower bound is the type of null. In this case, a zero length array is returned.

API Note

While to date a wildcard may have at most one lower bound, callers of this method should be written to accommodate multiple bounds.

Returns:AnnotatedType[]: the potentially annotated lower bounds of this wildcard type or an empty array if no lower bound is explicitly declared.

getAnnotatedOwnerType back to summary

getAnnotatedOwnerType	back to summary
public AnnotatedType getAnnotatedOwnerType() Redeclares as abstract: java.lang.reflect.AnnotatedType.getAnnotatedOwnerType. Returns the potentially annotated type that this type is a member of, if this type represents a nested type. For example, if this type is `@TA O<T>.I<S>`, return a representation of `@TA O<T>`. Returns `null` for an `AnnotatedType` that is an instance of `AnnotatedWildcardType`. Returns:AnnotatedType `null` Annotations @Override Since 9

public AnnotatedType getAnnotatedOwnerType()

public AnnotatedType[] getAnnotatedUpperBounds() Returns the potentially annotated upper bounds of this wildcard type. If no upper bound is explicitly declared, the upper bound is unannotated `Object` API Note While to date a wildcard may have at most one upper bound, callers of this method should be written to accommodate multiple bounds. Returns:AnnotatedType[] the potentially annotated upper bounds of this wildcard type See Also `WildcardType#getUpperBounds()`
