Method Detail

getAllClasses

public static List<Class<?>> getAllClasses(Class<?> clazz)

Find all super classes including this class itself.

Parameters:

clazz - the raw class to find super types for

Returns:

the list of super classes

getTypeArguments

public static Type[] getTypeArguments(Type type)

Get the generic arguments for a type.

Parameters:

type - the type to get arguments

Returns:

the generic arguments, empty if type is not parametrized

getTypeArgument

public static Type getTypeArgument(Type type)

Get the generic argument, or the first if the type has more than one.

Parameters:

type - the type to get arguments

Returns:

the generic argument, null if type is not parametrized

getRawClass

public static Class<?> getRawClass(Type type)

Get the raw class for a given type.

Parameters:

type - the input type

Returns:

the raw class

getSuperType

public static Type getSuperType(Type type)

Get the super type for a given type.

Parameters:

type - the input type

Returns:

the direct super type

getSuperType

public static Type getSuperType(Type subType,
                                Class<?> rawSuperType)

Get the super type for a type in its super type chain, which has a raw class that matches the specified class.

Parameters:

subType - the sub type to find super type for

rawSuperType - the raw class for the super type

Returns:

the super type that matches the requirement

isTypeOrSubTypeOf

public static boolean isTypeOrSubTypeOf(Type subType,
                                        Type superType)

Determines if a type is the same or a subtype for another type.

Parameters:

subType - the supposed sub type

superType - the supposed super type

Returns:

true if the first type is the same or a subtype for the second type

createParameterizedType

public static ParameterizedType createParameterizedType(Class<?> rawClass,
                                                        Type... genericTypes)

Create a parametrized type from a raw class and its type arguments.

Parameters:

rawClass - the raw class to construct the parametrized type

genericTypes - the generic arguments

Returns:

the parametrized type
