| public static Class<?> loadRawType(Type type) Loads a class corresponding to the raw type of given Type from the thread context classloader.
If there is no TCCL, the classloader that loaded JandexReflection is used.
Returns null when type is null.
Specifically:
- for the
void pseudo-type, returns void.class;
- for primitive types, returns the corresponding class object (e.g.
int.class);
- for class types, returns the corresponding class object (e.g.
String.class);
- for array types, returns the corresponding class object (e.g.
String[][].class);
- for parameterized types, returns the class object of the generic class
(e.g.
List.class for List<String>);
- for wildcard types, returns the class object of the upper bound type
(e.g.
Number.class for ? extends Number), or Object.class if the wildcard type
has no upper bound (e.g. ? super Integer);
- for type variables, returns the class object of the first bound
(e.g.
Number.class for T extends Number & Comparable<T>), or Object.class
if the type variable has no bounds (e.g. just T);
- for type variables references, follows the reference to obtain the type
variable and then returns the class object of the first bound (e.g.
Number.class for
T extends Number & Comparable<T>), or Object.class if the type variable has no bounds
(e.g. just T);
- for unresolved type variables, returns
Object.class.
- Parameters
- type:Type
a Jandex Type
- Returns:Class<?>
the corresponding Class
