```
public SoyType getType(String typeName)
```
    Look up a type by name. Returns null if there is no such type.
    
    Parameters:
    typeName - The fully-qualified name of the type.
    
    Returns:
    The type object, or null.
  - getOrCreateListType
```
public ListType getOrCreateListType(SoyType elementType)
```
    Factory function which creates a list type, given an element type. This folds list types with identical element types together, so asking for the same element type twice will return a pointer to the same type object.
    
    Parameters:
    elementType - The element type of the list.
    
    Returns:
    The list type.
  - getOrCreateMapType
```
public MapType getOrCreateMapType(SoyType keyType,
                         SoyType valueType)
```
    Factory function which creates a map type, given a key and value type. This folds map types with identical key/value types together, so asking for the same key/value type twice will return a pointer to the same type object.
    
    Parameters:
    keyType - The key type of the map.
    valueType - The value type of the map.
    
    Returns:
    The map type.
  - getOrCreateUnionType
```
public SoyType getOrCreateUnionType(Collection<SoyType> members)
```
    Factory function which creates a union type, given the member types. This folds identical union types together.
    
    Parameters:
    members - The members of the union.
    
    Returns:
    The union type.
  - getOrCreateUnionType
```
public SoyType getOrCreateUnionType(SoyType... members)
```
    Factory function which creates a union type, given the member types. This folds identical union types together.
    
    Parameters:
    members - The members of the union.
    
    Returns:
    The union type.
  - getOrCreateRecordType
```
public RecordType getOrCreateRecordType(Map<String,SoyType> fields)
```
    Factory function which creates a record type, given a map of fields. This folds map types with identical key/value types together, so asking for the same key/value type twice will return a pointer to the same type object.
    
    Parameters:
    fields - The map containing field names and types.
    
    Returns:
    The record type.
