Interface DeclaredType

- All Known Subinterfaces:
- ErrorType
public interface DeclaredType extends ReferenceType
Represents a declared type, either a class type or an interface type. This includes parameterized types such as java.util.Set<String> as well as raw types.
While a TypeElement represents a class or interface element, a DeclaredType represents a class or interface type, the latter being a use (or invocation) of the former. See TypeElement for more on this distinction.
The supertypes (both class and interface types) of a declared type may be found using the Types.directSupertypes(TypeMirror) method. This returns the supertypes with any type arguments substituted in.

asElement
Element asElement()
Returns the element corresponding to this type.
- Returns:
- the element corresponding to this type
getEnclosingType
TypeMirror getEnclosingType()
Returns the type of the innermost enclosing instance or a NoType of kind NONE if there is no enclosing instance. Only types corresponding to inner classes have an enclosing instance.
- Returns:
- a type mirror for the enclosing type
getTypeArguments
List<? extends TypeMirror> getTypeArguments()
Returns the actual type arguments of this type. For a type nested within a parameterized type (such as Outer<String>.Inner<Number>), only the type arguments of the innermost type are included.
- Returns:
- the actual type arguments of this type, or an empty list if none
