Given a parameterized type and a generic type information, aligns actual type parameters. For example, if a class uses generic type
<T,U,V>(redirectGenericTypes), is used with actual type parameters
<java.lang.String, U,V>, then a class or interface using generic types
<T,V>will be aligned to
<java.lang.String,V>
redirectGenericTypes
- the type arguments or the redirect class nodeparameterizedTypes
- the actual type arguments used on this class nodealignmentTarget
- the generic type arguments to which we want to align toGenerates a wildcard generic type in order to be used for checks against class nodes. See GenericsType#isCompatibleWith(org.codehaus.groovy.ast.ClassNode).
types
- the type to be used as the wildcard upper boundFor a given classnode, fills in the supplied map with the parameterized types it defines.
Interface class nodes retrieved from ClassNode.getInterfaces or ClassNode.getAllInterfaces are returned with generic type arguments. This method allows returning a parameterized interface given the parameterized class node which implements this interface.

- the interface we want to parameterize generics typesInterface class nodes retrieved from ClassNode.getInterfaces or ClassNode.getAllInterfaces are returned with generic type arguments. This method allows returning a parameterized interface given the parameterized class node which implements this interface.
