getAnyType

back to summary

public TypeReference getAnyType()

The any type is the type of the null pointer and has no concrete representation in Java. It is assignable to every reference type.

Returns:TypeReference: a type reference representing the "any type".

newArrayTypeReference	back to summary
public TypeReference newArrayTypeReference(TypeReference componentType) Creates a new array type reference using the given component type. If the component type is itself an array this method adds a dimension. Parameters componentType:TypeReference the component type of the array type reference Returns:TypeReference an array type reference

newArrayTypeReference

back to summary

public TypeReference newArrayTypeReference(TypeReference componentType)

Creates a new array type reference using the given component type. If the component type is itself an array this method adds a dimension.

Parameters

componentType:TypeReference: the component type of the array type reference

Returns:TypeReference

an array type reference

newSelfTypeReference back to summary

newSelfTypeReference	back to summary
public TypeReference newSelfTypeReference(Type typeDeclaration) Returns a new self type reference for the given typeDeclaration, e.g. if you have a class like class Foo<T> {} And you want to add a method that returns the instance itself, you would use the self type as the method's return type. class Foo<T> { def Foo<T> mySelf() { this } } In contrast, `newTypeReference(Type, TypeReference...)` without any arguments would return the raw type only and would result in code with warnings: class Foo<T> { def Foo mySelf() { this } } Parameters typeDeclaration:Type the raw type for the newly produced reference Returns:TypeReference a reference to the given type declaration Since 2.7

public TypeReference newSelfTypeReference(Type typeDeclaration)

Returns a new self type reference for the given typeDeclaration, e.g. if you have a class like

 class Foo<T> {}

And you want to add a method that returns the instance itself, you would use the self type as the method's return type.

class Foo<T> {
 def Foo<T> mySelf() {
  this
 }
}

In contrast, newTypeReference(Type, TypeReference...) without any arguments would return the raw type only and would result in code with warnings:

class Foo<T> {
 def Foo mySelf() {
  this
 }
}

Parameters

typeDeclaration:Type: the raw type for the newly produced reference

Returns:TypeReference

a reference to the given type declaration
