• public static final String JAVA_LANG_OBJECT

Method Detail

• public static Map<String, ClassNode> addMethodGenerics(MethodNode current, Map<String, ClassNode> oldSpec)

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

  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>

  deprecated:

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

  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

• public static GenericsType[] applyGenericsContextToPlaceHolders(Map<String, ClassNode> genericsSpec, GenericsType[] oldPlaceHolders)

  Transforms generics types from an old context to a new context using the given spec. This method assumes all generics types will be placeholders. WARNING: The resulting generics types may or may not be placeholders after the transformation.

  Parameters:

  genericsSpec - the generics context information spec

  oldPlaceHolders - the old placeholders

  Returns:

  the new generics types

• 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

• public static void clearParameterizedTypeCache()

  Clears the parameterized type cache.

  It is useful to IDE as the type being compiled are continuously being edited/altered, see GROOVY-8675

• public static Map<String, ClassNode> createGenericsSpec(ClassNode current, Map<String, ClassNode> oldSpec)

• public static Map<GenericsType.GenericsTypeName, GenericsType> extractPlaceholders(ClassNode type)

  Returns the type parameter/argument relationships of the specified type.

  Parameters:

  type - the class node to check

• public static void extractPlaceholders(ClassNode type, Map<GenericsType.GenericsTypeName, GenericsType> placeholders)

  Populates the supplied map with the type parameter/argument relationships of the specified type.

  Parameters:

  type - the class node to check

  placeholders - the generics type information collector

• public static void extractSuperClassGenerics(ClassNode type, ClassNode target, Map<String, ClassNode> spec)

• public static ClassNode findActualTypeByGenericsPlaceholderName(String placeholderName, Map<GenericsType, GenericsType> genericsPlaceholderAndTypeMap)

  Gets the actual type according to the placeholder name.

  Parameters:

  placeholderName - the placeholder name (i.e. "T", "E", etc.)

  genericsPlaceholderAndTypeMap - the result of makeDeclaringAndActualGenericsTypeMap(ClassNode, ClassNode)

  Returns:

  the actual type

• public static ClassNode findParameterizedType(ClassNode genericsClass, ClassNode actualType)

  Get the parameterized type by search the whole class hierarchy according to generics class and actual receiver. findParameterizedTypeFromCache(ClassNode, ClassNode) is strongly recommended for better performance.

  Parameters:

  genericsClass - the generics class

  actualType - the actual type

  Returns:

  the parameterized type

• public static ClassNode findParameterizedTypeFromCache(ClassNode genericsClass, ClassNode actualType)

  Try to get the parameterized type from the cache. If no cached item found, cache and return the result of findParameterizedType(ClassNode, ClassNode)

• public static ClassNode getSuperClass(ClassNode type, ClassNode target)

• public static boolean hasPlaceHolders(ClassNode type)

  Checks if the type has any placeholder (aka unresolved) generics.

  Since:

  2.5.10

• public static boolean hasUnresolvedGenerics(ClassNode type)

  Checks for any placeholder (aka unresolved) generics.

• public static ClassNode makeClassSafeWithGenerics(Class klass, ClassNode genericsType)

• public static ClassNode makeClassSafeWithGenerics(ClassNode type, GenericsType... genericTypes)

• public static Map<GenericsType, GenericsType> makeDeclaringAndActualGenericsTypeMap(ClassNode declaringClass, ClassNode actualReceiver)

  map declaring generics type to actual generics type, e.g. GROOVY-7204: declaring generics types: T, S extends Serializable actual generics types : String, Long the result map is [ T: String, S: Long ] The resolved types can not help us to choose methods correctly if the argument is a string: T: Object, S: Serializable so we need actual types: T: String, S: Long

• public static Map<GenericsType, GenericsType> makeDeclaringAndActualGenericsTypeMapOfExactType(ClassNode declaringClass, ClassNode actualReceiver)

  The method is similar with GenericsUtils.makeDeclaringAndActualGenericsTypeMap, The main difference is that the method will try to map all placeholders found to the relevant exact types, but the other will not try even if the parameterized type has placeholders

  Backported from 3.0.0

  Parameters:

  declaringClass - the generics class node declaring the generics types

  actualReceiver - the sub-class class node

  Returns:

  the placeholder-to-actualtype mapping

  Since:

  2.5.9

• public static ClassNode newClass(ClassNode type)

• public static ClassNode nonGeneric(ClassNode type)

• @Deprecated public static ClassNode parameterizeInterfaceGenerics(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.

  deprecated:

  Use #parameterizeType instead

  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

• 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
