public interface Shadow<MIRROR extends TypeMirror>
extends MirrorBacked<MIRROR>, ApiHolder

Represents sourceCode that is being complied. A Shadow can be converted only in one of its children using ShadowApi.convert(Shadow). Every Shadow has a TypeKind indicating its Type. TypeKind.ARRAY -> Array. To check for equality use representsSameType(Shadow).

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
boolean	equals(Object obj)	be careful using this equals
ShadowApi	getApi()
MIRROR	getMirror()
TypeKind	getTypeKind()
boolean	isTypeKind(TypeKind typeKind)
boolean	representsSameType(Shadow<? extends TypeMirror> shadow)	type equals from the compiler perspective. for example ?

Method Details

getTypeKind

TypeKind getTypeKind()

isTypeKind

boolean isTypeKind(TypeKind typeKind)

representsSameType

boolean representsSameType(Shadow<? extends TypeMirror> shadow)

type equals from the compiler perspective. for example ? does not equal ? for the compiler. use this method to compare Shadows when ever possible. equals(Object) should only be used to compare the technical aspect of two objects. for example in a list implementation.

getMirror

MIRROR getMirror()

Specified by:

getApi

ShadowApi getApi()

Specified by:

equals
