Method Detail

alignGenericTypes

@Deprecated
public static GenericsType[] alignGenericTypes(GenericsType[] redirectGenericTypes,
                                          GenericsType[] parameterizedTypes,
                                          GenericsType[] alignmentTarget)

Deprecated. You shouldn't call this method because it is inherently unreliable

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>

Parameters:

redirectGenericTypes - the type arguments or the redirect class node

parameterizedTypes - the actual type arguments used on this class node

alignmentTarget - the generic type arguments to which we want to align to

Returns:

aligned type arguments

buildWildcardType

public static GenericsType buildWildcardType(ClassNode... types)

Generates a wildcard generic type in order to be used for checks against class nodes. See GenericsType.isCompatibleWith(org.codehaus.groovy.ast.ClassNode).

Parameters:

types - the type to be used as the wildcard upper bound

Returns:

a wildcard generics type

extractPlaceholders

public static Map<String,GenericsType> extractPlaceholders(ClassNode cn)

extractPlaceholders

public static void extractPlaceholders(ClassNode node,
                       Map<String,GenericsType> map)

For a given classnode, fills in the supplied map with the parameterized types it defines.

Parameters:

node -

map -

parameterizeInterfaceGenerics

public static ClassNode parameterizeInterfaceGenerics(ClassNode hint,
                                      ClassNode target)

Deprecated. Use #parameterizeType instead

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.

Parameters:

hint - the class node where generics types are parameterized

target - the interface we want to parameterize generics types

Returns:

a parameterized interface class node

parameterizeType

public static ClassNode parameterizeType(ClassNode hint,
                         ClassNode target)

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.

Parameters:

hint - the class node where generics types are parameterized

target - the interface we want to parameterize generics types

Returns:

a parameterized interface class node

nonGeneric

public static ClassNode nonGeneric(ClassNode type)
