GenericArrayTypeProperties

public GenericArrayTypeProperties(GenericArrayType genericArrayType)

Constructor: creates an instance based on the properties of the given array type.

Parameters:

genericArrayType - the generic array type to describe

GenericArrayTypeProperties

public GenericArrayTypeProperties(Type componentType,
                                  int dimension)

Constructor for manual creation.

Parameters:

componentType - the component type

dimension - the dimension

Method Detail

getComponentType

public Type getComponentType()

Description copied from interface: ArrayTypeProperties

Returns the component of the array. Never an array itself.

Specified by:

getComponentType in interface ArrayTypeProperties

Returns:

the component

getDimension

public int getDimension()

Description copied from interface: ArrayTypeProperties

Returns the dimension of the array type. For example, the dimension is 1 for a regular array type like String[]; for double[][][], the dimension is 3. If the processed type is not an array, the method returns 0.

Specified by:

getDimension in interface ArrayTypeProperties

Returns:

the dimension, or 0 if it is not an array

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Overrides:

equals in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object
