Interface TreeResolver

All Known Subinterfaces:

JavaModel

public interface TreeResolver

The TreeResolver provides a facility for resolving type and declaration references on Trees. Methods are provided for resolving individual Tree objects. Other methods are provided for resolving an entire FileT.

The TreeResolver may need to acquire resource(s) as it performs resolution. Callers should be warned that TreeResolver operations may therefore block unless the underlying resource has already been acquired.

Constructors

There is one special case where a Tree resolves to a valid type and a valid declaration that "seem" to not match, namely NewClassExpressionT. The NewClassExpressionT will be resolved to a type which is the type of the class being created. However, the NewClassExpressionT will also resolve to a constructor declaration which, as you may recall, have no return type.
