public interface TypeMirror
void
.
Types should be compared using the utility methods in Types
. There is no guarantee that any particular type will always
be represented by the same object.
To implement operations based on the class of an TypeMirror
object, either use a visitor
or use the result of the getKind()
method. Using instanceof
is not necessarily a reliable idiom for
determining the effective class of an object in this modeling
hierarchy since an implementation may choose to have a single
object implement multiple TypeMirror
subinterfaces.
Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
---|---|
<R,P> R |
accept(TypeVisitor<R,P> v,
P p)
Applies a visitor to this type.
|
boolean |
equals(Object obj)
Obeys the general contract of
Object.equals . |
TypeKind |
getKind()
Returns the
kind of this type. |
int |
hashCode()
Obeys the general contract of
Object.hashCode . |
String |
toString()
Returns an informative string representation of this type.

This method does not, however, indicate whether two types represent
the same type.
Semantic comparisons of type equality should instead use
Types.isSameType(TypeMirror, TypeMirror)
.
The results of t1.equals(t2)
and
Types.isSameType(t1, t2)
may differ.equals
