All Superinterfaces:
AnnotatedElement, AnnotatedType
public interface AnnotatedParameterizedType extends AnnotatedType
AnnotatedParameterizedType represents the potentially annotated use of a parameterized type, whose type arguments may themselves represent annotated uses of types.

Method Summary

Method Details

getAnnotatedActualTypeArguments

AnnotatedType[] getAnnotatedActualTypeArguments()
Returns the potentially annotated actual type arguments of this parameterized type.

Note that in some cases, the returned array can be empty. This can occur if this annotated type represents a non-parameterized type nested within a parameterized type.

Returns:
the potentially annotated actual type arguments of this parameterized type
See Also:

getAnnotatedOwnerType

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 if this AnnotatedType represents a top-level class or interface, or a local or anonymous class, or a primitive type, or void.

Specified by:
getAnnotatedOwnerType in interface AnnotatedType
Returns:
an AnnotatedType object representing the potentially annotated type that this type is a member of, or null
Throws:
TypeNotPresentException - if the owner type refers to a non-existent class or interface declaration
MalformedParameterizedTypeException - if the owner type refers to a parameterized type that cannot be instantiated for any reason
