Interface IntersectionType

All Superinterfaces:

AnnotatedConstruct, TypeMirror

public interface IntersectionType
extends TypeMirror, AnnotatedConstruct

Represents an intersection type, equivalent to javax.lang.model.type.IntersectionType in JDK 8.

Implementations may implement both javax.lang.model.type.IntersectionType and this interface. At some time in the future, when Java 7 compatibility is no longer required, this interface will be deprecated and eventually removed in favor of javax.lang.model.type.IntersectionType.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
List<? extends TypeMirror>	getBounds() Return the bounds comprising this intersection type.
boolean	isIntersectionType() Returns whether this type mirror represents an intersection type.

Method Detail

getBounds

List<? extends TypeMirror> getBounds()

Return the bounds comprising this intersection type.

Returns:

the bounds of this intersection types.

isIntersectionType

boolean isIntersectionType()

Returns whether this type mirror represents an intersection type.

Since implementations may choose to implement multiple TypeMirror sub-interfaces at the same time, this method exists so that an object can explicitly indicate whether it represents an intersection type.

Returns:

whether this type mirror represents an intersection type
