- Method Detail
  - lookup
```
static Map<String,TypeAliasResolver<?,?>> lookup()
```
    Resolves all available type alias resolvers from resource path lookup. Scans classpath for type alias resolver meta information and instantiates those resolvers.
    
    Returns:
  - lookup
```
static Optional<TypeAliasResolver<?,?>> lookup(String resolver)
```
    Resolves type alias resolver from resource path lookup with given resource name. Scans classpath for type alias resolver meta information with given name and returns instance of type alias resolver. Returns optional instead of throwing exception when no type alias resolver could be found.
    
    Parameters:
