public class Primitives
extends Object

Class providing translation of a primitive type to a type code. The same type codes are used for both run-time and compile-time code. The compile-time versions use a comparison against the Java signature of the class. For our purposes, any type that can be coerced to an FML or View field is a primitive, including String and Decimal (but not embedded FML32, embedded View or Ptr).

Method Detail

getName

public static String getName(int typeCode)

Get the name of the type corresponding to a given type code.

Parameters:

typeCode - The type code.

Returns:

The associated name.

getPrimitiveTypeCode

public static int getPrimitiveTypeCode(String signature)

Looks up our own type code for well-known types

Parameters:

signature - the Java signature for a type

Returns:

the type code for a matching type, else TYPE_NON_PRIMITIVE

getPrimitiveTypeCode

public static int getPrimitiveTypeCode(Object obj)

Get interger type code for primitive or wrapped primitive type.

Parameters:

obj - The object whose type we want.

Returns:

The type code for the object. TYPE_NON_PRIMITIVE indicates a non-primitive object.

getPrimitiveTypeCode

public static int getPrimitiveTypeCode(Class cls)

typeNameToSignature

public static String typeNameToSignature(String typeName)

Primitives class expects signatures, but mirror API gives class names
