Interfaces used to model types.
A type is represented by the appropriate subinterface of
{@link com.sun.mirror.type.TypeMirror}.
Note that the apt tool and its associated APIs may be
changed or superseded in future j2se releases.

| AnnotationType.java | Interface | Represents an annotation type.

| ArrayType.java | Interface | Represents an array type.
A multidimensional array type is represented as an array type
whose component type is also an array type.

| ClassType.java | Interface | Represents a class type.
Interface types are represented separately by
InterfaceType .
Note that an
is a kind of class.
While a
ClassDeclaration represents the declaration
of a class, a ClassType represents a class type.
See
TypeDeclaration for more on this distinction.

| DeclaredType.java | Interface | Represents a declared type, either a class type or an interface type.
This includes parameterized types such as
java.util.Set as well as raw types.
While a TypeDeclaration represents the declaration
of a class or interface, a DeclaredType represents a class
or interface type, the latter being a use of the former.
See
TypeDeclaration for more on this distinction.
A DeclaredType may represent a type
for which details (declaration, supertypes, etc.) are unknown.
This may be the result of a processing error, such as a missing class file,
and is indicated by
DeclaredType.getDeclaration() returning null.
Other method invocations on such an unknown type will not, in general,
return meaningful results.

Class object
corresponding to a
TypeMirror . |
| MirroredTypesException.java | Class | Thrown when an application attempts to access a sequence of
Class objects each corresponding to a
TypeMirror . |
| PrimitiveType.java | Interface | Represents a primitive type. |
| ReferenceType.java | Interface | Represents a reference type.
These include class and interface types, array types, and type variables.

| TypeMirror.java | Interface | Represents a type in the Java programming language.
Types include primitive types, class and interface types, array
types, and type variables. |
| TypeVariable.java | Interface | Represents a type variable. |
| VoidType.java | Interface | A pseudo-type representing the type of void.

| WildcardType.java | Interface | Represents a wildcard type argument.
Examples include:
?
? extends Number
? super T
A wildcard may have its upper bound explicitly set by an
extends clause, its lower bound explicitly set by a
super clause, or neither (but not both).
