Interface JavaField

All Superinterfaces:

Element, JavaElement, JavaHasAnnotations, JavaHasName, JavaHasType, JavaMember, JavaVariable

All Known Subinterfaces:

SourceEnumConstant, SourceFieldVariable, SourceMemberVariable

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractField, WrapperField

public interface JavaField
extends JavaMember, JavaVariable

The JavaField is the compiled representation of a java field. If you want the syntactic (aka symbolic) representation of a java field, see SourceMemberVariable.

Field Detail

EMPTY_ARRAY

static final JavaField[] EMPTY_ARRAY

Method Detail

isEnumConstant

boolean isEnumConstant()

Returns:

True if this field is an enum constant. False otherwise.

getDescriptor

java.lang.String getDescriptor()

Returns:

The VM-defined pre-jdk-1.5 descriptor.

getSignature

java.lang.String getSignature()

Returns:

The VM-defined jdk-1.5 signature.

getFieldErasure

JavaField getFieldErasure()

Similar to JavaMethod.getMethodErasure. Strips a JavaField of any parameterization, meaning any type arguments are removed, and the original JavaField is returned. E.g. if Foo<A> has a JavaField 'field' with type 'A', then a Foo<String> instance has a JavaField 'field' with type String, and calling getFieldErasure on that last JavaField will return a JavaField with type 'A'.

Returns:

A JavaField without any parameterization

getSourceElement

SourceMemberVariable getSourceElement()

Specified by:

getSourceElement in interface JavaElement

Returns:

The corresponding source symbol to this element. Null if there is no corresponding source symbol or if the corresponding source symbol could not be found.
