Package Summary Overview Summary

### class:AnnotatedType [NONE]
All Superinterfaces: `AnnotatedElement` All Known Subinterfaces: `AnnotatedArrayType`, `AnnotatedParameterizedType`, `AnnotatedTypeVariable`, `AnnotatedWildcardType`
    public interface AnnotatedType
    extends AnnotatedElement
`AnnotatedType` represents the potentially annotated use of a type in the program currently running in this VM. The use may be of any type in the Java programming language, including an array type, a parameterized type, a type variable, or a wildcard type. Since: 1.8

### method:getAnnotatedOwnerType() [NONE]
### getAnnotatedOwnerType default 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 type, or a local or anonymous class, or a primitive type, or void. Returns `null` if this `AnnotatedType` is an instance of `AnnotatedArrayType`, `AnnotatedTypeVariable`, or `AnnotatedWildcardType`. Implementation Requirements: This default implementation returns `null` and performs no other action. 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 type declaration `MalformedParameterizedTypeException` - if the owner type refers to a parameterized type that cannot be instantiated for any reason Since: 9

### method:getType() [NONE]
### getType Type getType() Returns the underlying type that this annotated type represents. Returns: the type this annotated type represents
