Method Detail

argumentClassIsParameterClass	back to summary
protected static boolean argumentClassIsParameterClass(Class<?> argumentClass, Class<?> parameterClass) Realizes an unsharp equal for the class. In general we return true if the provided arguments are the same. But we will also return true if our argument class is a wrapper for the parameter class. For example the parameter is an int and the argument class is a wrapper.

getWrapperClass	back to summary
protected static Class<?> getWrapperClass(Class<?> c) Get wrapper class for a given class. If the class is for a primitive number type, then the wrapper class will be returned. If it is no primitive number type, we return the class itself.

isBigDecCategory	back to summary
protected static boolean isBigDecCategory(Class<?> x)

isBigIntCategory	back to summary
private static boolean isBigIntCategory(Class<?> x)

isDoubleCategory	back to summary
protected static boolean isDoubleCategory(Class<?> x)

isIntCategory	back to summary
protected static boolean isIntCategory(Class<?> x)

isLongCategory	back to summary
protected static boolean isLongCategory(Class<?> x)

replaceWithMoreSpecificType	back to summary
protected static MethodType replaceWithMoreSpecificType(Object[] args, MethodType callSiteType) Replaces the types in the callSiteType parameter if more specific types given through the arguments. This is in general the case, unless the argument is null.
