Method Detail

extractGenericReturnType

public Class<?> extractGenericReturnType(Class<?> containingClass,
                                         Method method)

Description copied from interface: GenericsResolver

Analyzes the method in the context of containingClass and returns the Class that is represented by the method's generic return type. Any parameter information in the generic return type is lost. If you want to preserve the type parameters of the return type consider using GenericsResolver.extractActualType(java.lang.reflect.Type, java.lang.reflect.Method).

Specified by:

extractGenericReturnType in interface GenericsResolver

Parameters:

containingClass - class which either contains or inherited the method

method - method from which to extract the return type

Returns:

the class represented by the methods generic return type, resolved based on the context .

GenericsResolver.resolve(java.lang.reflect.Type,java.lang.reflect.Type), GenericsResolver.asClass(java.lang.reflect.Type)

extractGenericFieldType

public Class extractGenericFieldType(Class containingClass,
                                     Field field)

Description copied from interface: GenericsResolver

Analyzes the field in the context of containingClass and returns the Class that is represented by the field's generic type. Any parameter information in the generic type is lost, if you want to preserve the type parameters of the return type consider using #getTypeVariableIndex(java.lang.reflect.TypeVariable).

Specified by:

extractGenericFieldType in interface GenericsResolver

Parameters:

containingClass - class which either contains or inherited the field

field - field from which to extract the type

Returns:

the class represented by the field's generic type, resolved based on the containingClass.

GenericsResolver.extractActualType(java.lang.reflect.Type, java.lang.reflect.Field), GenericsResolver.resolve(java.lang.reflect.Type,java.lang.reflect.Type), GenericsResolver.asClass(java.lang.reflect.Type)

extractActualType

public Type extractActualType(Type containingType,
                              Method method)

Description copied from interface: GenericsResolver

Analyzes the method in the context of containingClass and returns the Class that is represented by the method's generic return type. Any parameter information in the generic return type is lost.

Specified by:

extractActualType in interface GenericsResolver

Parameters:

containingType - Type which is/represents the class that either contains or inherited the method

method - method from which to extract the generic return type

Returns:

the generic type represented by the methods generic return type, resolved based on the containingType.

See Also:

GenericsResolver.resolve(java.lang.reflect.Type,java.lang.reflect.Type)

extractActualType

public Type extractActualType(Type containingType,
                              Field field)

Description copied from interface: GenericsResolver

Analyzes the method in the context of containingClass and returns the Class that is represented by the method's generic return type. Any parameter information in the generic return type is lost.

Specified by:

extractActualType in interface GenericsResolver

Parameters:

containingType - Type which is/represents the class that either contains or inherited the field

field - field from which to extract the generic return type

Returns:

the generic type represented by the methods generic return type, resolved based on the containingType.

See Also:

GenericsResolver.resolve(java.lang.reflect.Type,java.lang.reflect.Type)

resolve

public Type resolve(Type type,
                    Type containingType)

Description copied from interface: GenericsResolver

Resolves the type parameter based on the context of the containingType. TypeVariable will be unwrapped to the type argument resolved form the class hierarchy. This may be something other than a simple Class if the type argument is a ParameterizedType for instance (e.g. List<E>; List<Map<Long, String>>, E would be returned as a ParameterizedType with the raw type Map and type arguments Long and String.

Specified by:

resolve in interface GenericsResolver

Parameters:

type - the generic type (ParameterizedType, GenericArrayType, WildcardType, TypeVariable) to be resolved

containingType - the type which his

Returns:

the type resolved to the best of our ability.

asClass

public Class asClass(Type actualType)

Description copied from interface: GenericsResolver

Get the class represented by the reflected type. This method is lossy; You cannot recover the type information from the class that is returned. TypeVariable the first bound is returned. If your type variable extends multiple interfaces that information is lost. WildcardType the first lower bound is returned. If the wildcard is defined with upper bounds then Object is returned.

Specified by:

asClass in interface GenericsResolver

Parameters:

actualType - a Class, ParameterizedType, GenericArrayType

Returns:

the un-parameterized class associated with the type.
