Constructor Detail

AliasT

public AliasT(java.lang.String name)

Create a new type alias.

Parameters:

name - The name.

AliasT

public AliasT(java.lang.String name,
              Type type)

Create a new type alias.

Parameters:

name - The name.

type - The type.

AliasT

public AliasT(Type template,
              java.lang.String name,
              Type type)

Create a new type alias.

Parameters:

template - The type whose annotations to copy.

name - The name.

type - The type.

Method Detail

seal

public Type seal()

Seal this alias. If this alias is incomplete, i.e., does not have a type, invocations to this method have no effect.

Overrides:

seal in class WrappedT

Returns:

This type.

See Also:

Type.seal(List)

copy

public AliasT copy()

Description copied from class: Type

Create a deep copy of this type. The resulting type is not sealed.

Specified by:

copy in class Type

Returns:

A deep copy of this type.

wtag

public Type.Tag wtag()

Description copied from class: Type

Get this wrapped type's tag. Invocations to this method are not forwarded across wrapped types.

Overrides:

wtag in class Type

Returns:

This wrapped type's tag.

See Also:

Type.tag()

isAlias

public boolean isAlias()

Description copied from class: Type

Determine whether this type is an alias.

Overrides:

isAlias in class Type

Returns:

true if this type is an alias.

hasAlias

public boolean hasAlias()

Description copied from class: Type

Determine whether this type contains an alias.

Overrides:

hasAlias in class WrappedT

Returns:

true if this type contains an alias.

toAlias

public AliasT toAlias()

Description copied from class: Type

Get this type as an alias.

Overrides:

toAlias in class WrappedT

Returns:

This type as an alias.

getName

public java.lang.String getName()

Get the name.

Overrides:

getName in class Node

Returns:

The name.

write

public void write(java.lang.Appendable out)
           throws java.io.IOException

Description copied from class: Node

Write a human readable representation to the specified appendable. If this node supports generic traversal, the default implementation writes this node in algebraic term-format; otherwise, it writes the string returned by Object.toString().

Overrides:

write in class Node

Parameters:

out - The appendable.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - Signals an I/O error.
