Package Summary Overview Summary

### class:DeclaredType [NONE]
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. Since: 1.6 See Also: `TypeElement` ## Method Summary Modifier and Type Method Description `Element` `asElement()` Returns the element corresponding to this type. `TypeMirror` `getEnclosingType()` Returns the type of the innermost enclosing instance or a `NoType` of kind `NONE` if there is no enclosing instance. `List <? extends TypeMirror>` `getTypeArguments()` Returns the actual type arguments of this type. ### Methods declared in interface javax.lang.model.type.TypeMirror `accept, equals, getAnnotation, getAnnotationMirrors, getAnnotationsByType, getKind, hashCode, toString` ## Method Details ### 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 See Java Language Specification : 8.1.3 Inner Classes and Enclosing Instances 15.9.2 Determining Enclosing Instances ### 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
