Method Detail

tryConvertToArray

public ArrayTypeReference tryConvertToArray(ParameterizedTypeReference typeReference)

Returns the array representation of this reference if its represents a sub-type of Iterable. If the iterable's type is a primitive wrapper, the array is not the primitive array but the wrapper array. May return null if the conversion is not possible. This is the externalized and thereby exchangeable implementation of ParameterizedTypeReference.tryConvertToArray().

Parameters:

typeReference - the to-be-converted reference.

Returns:

an equivalent ArrayTypeReference or null.
