      • values

        public static JavaType[] values()
        Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
        for (JavaType c : JavaType.values())
            System.out.println(c);
        
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
      • valueOf

        public static JavaType valueOf​(java.lang.String name)
        Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
        Parameters:
        name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
        Returns:
        the enum constant with the specified name
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
      • getDefaultDefault

        public java.lang.Object getDefaultDefault()
        The default default value for fields of this type, if it's a primitive type.
      • getType

        public java.lang.Class<?> getType()
        Gets the required type for a field that would hold a value of this type.
      • getBoxedType

        public java.lang.Class<?> getBoxedType()
        Returns:
        the boxedType
      • isValidType

        public boolean isValidType​(java.lang.Class<?> t)
        Indicates whether or not this JavaType can be applied to a field of the given type.
