Method Detail

make

public static GenericArrayTypeImpl make(Type ct)

Factory method.

Parameters:

ct - - the desired component type of the generic array type being created

Returns:

a generic array type with the desired component type

getGenericComponentType

public Type getGenericComponentType()

Returns a Type object representing the component type of this array.

Specified by:

getGenericComponentType in interface GenericArrayType

Returns:

a Type object representing the component type of this array

Since:

1.5

toString

public String toString()

Description copied from class: Object

toString creates a printable string that represents this object for debugging purposes.

The default implementation returns getClass().getName() + '@' + Integer.toHexString(hashCode()).

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

a string identifying this object.

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Description copied from class: Object

equals compares this object to another object.

Equals must be symmetric (a.equals(b) == b.equals(a)), reflexive (a.equals(a)==true) and transitive (a.equals(b) && b.equals(c) IMPLIES (a.equals(c))) and not change over time (a.equals(b) == a.equals(b)). a.equals(null) should always return false.

If a.equals(b) is true for two objects a and b, then a.hashCode()==b.hashCode() must hold.

The default implementation of equals returns this==other.

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

o - the other object.

Returns:

if this and other are considered equal.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Description copied from class: Object

hashCode returns a hash code for this object. The hash code must be equal for two objects a and b if a.equals(b) is true.

The default implementation returns System.identityHashCode(this).

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

Returns:

a hash code value.
