      • VOID

        public static final Type.Kind VOID
        E.g. when method returns void.

      • PRIMITIVE

        public static final Type.Kind PRIMITIVE
        E.g. when method returns int.

      • CLASS

        public static final Type.Kind CLASS
        E.g. when method returns String.

      • ARRAY

        public static final Type.Kind ARRAY
        E.g. when method returns int[] or String[][].

      • PARAMETERIZED_TYPE

        public static final Type.Kind PARAMETERIZED_TYPE
        E.g. when method returns List<String>.

      • TYPE_VARIABLE

        public static final Type.Kind TYPE_VARIABLE
        E.g. when method returns T and T is a type parameter of the declaring class.

      • WILDCARD_TYPE

        public static final Type.Kind WILDCARD_TYPE
        E.g. when method returns List<? extends Number>. The kind of such type is PARAMETERIZED_TYPE, but the first (and only) type argument is a WILDCARD_TYPE.

      • values

        public static Type.Kind[] values()
        Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows: 
        for (Type.Kind c : Type.Kind.values())
    System.out.println(c);
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

      • valueOf

        public static Type.Kind valueOf​(java.lang.String name)
        Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
        Parameters:
        name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
        Returns:
        the enum constant with the specified name
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
