Uses of Descriptor in org.glassfish.hk2.api

Subinterfaces of Descriptor in org.glassfish.hk2.api

Modifier and Type	Interface	Description
interface	ActiveDescriptor<T>	An ActiveDescriptor contains information about a Descriptor after it has been reified.

Methods in org.glassfish.hk2.api that return Descriptor

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
Descriptor	ErrorInformation.getDescriptor()	This will contain the active descriptor that is associated with this failure.
Descriptor	DuplicateServiceException.getExistingDescriptor()	Gets the descriptor that matched one of the idempotent filters
Descriptor	FactoryDescriptors.getFactoryAsAFactory()	This returns the factory as a factory for some other type.
Descriptor	FactoryDescriptors.getFactoryAsAService()	This returns the factory as a service itself.
