Interface IRawTypeHelper

All Known Implementing Classes:

RawTypeHelper

public interface IRawTypeHelper

The IRawTypeHelper allows to compute the raw types for a given reference. Semantically the raw type for a reference is considered to be

• The primary type for a parameterized type, e.g. List<String> produces List
• The constraints in case the type is a type paramater, e.g. CharSequence is the raw type of a type parameter T extends CharSequence
• Wildcard references determine the raw type from their upper bound
• Multi-types return all the raw types of all of their components.
• Synonyms return the raw type of the synonym since the primary type is only used to track the origin. That means, a type int | Integer has the raw type Integer
