public abstract class ResolvedType extends Object
Type abstraction that represents Java type that has been resolved (i.e. has all generic information, if any, resolved to concrete types). Note that this is an intermediate type, and all concrete instances MUST be of type JavaType from "databind" bundle -- this abstraction is only needed so that types can be passed through JsonParser.readValueAs(java.lang.Class<T>) methods.

    • getRawClass

      public abstract Class<?> getRawClass()
      Returns:
      Type-erased Class of resolved type
    • hasRawClass

      public abstract boolean hasRawClass(Class<?> clz)
    • isAbstract

      public abstract boolean isAbstract()

    • isFinal

      public abstract boolean isFinal()
    • isContainerType

      public abstract boolean isContainerType()
    • isCollectionLikeType

      public abstract boolean isCollectionLikeType()
    • isReferenceType

      public boolean isReferenceType()
      Whether this type is a referential type, meaning that values are basically pointers to "real" values (or null) and not regular values themselves. Typical examples include things like AtomicReference, and various Optional types (in JDK8, Guava).
      Returns:
      True if this is a "referential" type, false if not

      2.6
    • isMapLikeType

      public abstract boolean isMapLikeType()
    • hasGenericTypes

      public abstract boolean hasGenericTypes()
      Method that can be used to find out if the type directly declares generic parameters (for its direct super-class and/or super-interfaces).
      Returns:
      True if this type has generic type parameters, false if not
    • getParameterSource

      @Deprecated public Class<?> getParameterSource()
      Deprecated.
      Since 2.7: does not have meaning as parameters depend on type resolved.
      Returns:
      Type-erased class of something not usable at this point
    • getKeyType

      public abstract ResolvedType getKeyType()
      Method for accessing key type for this type, assuming type has such a concept (only Map types do)
      Returns:
      Key type of this type, if any; null if none
    • getContentType

      public abstract ResolvedType getContentType()
      Method for accessing content type of this type, if type has such a thing: simple types do not, structured types do (like arrays, Collections and Maps)
      Returns:
      Content type of this type, if any; null if none
    • getReferencedType

      public abstract ResolvedType getReferencedType()
      Method for accessing type of value that instances of this type references, if any.
      Returns:
      Referenced type, if any; null if not.
      Since:
      2.6
    • containedTypeCount

      public abstract int containedTypeCount()
      Method for checking how many contained types this type has. Contained types are usually generic types, so that generic Maps have 2 contained types.
      Returns:
      Number of contained types that may be accessed
    • containedType

      public abstract ResolvedType containedType(int index)
      Method for accessing definitions of contained ("child") types.
      Parameters:
      index - Index of contained type to return
      Returns:
      Contained type at index, or null if no such type exists (no exception thrown)
    • containedTypeName

      public abstract String containedTypeName(int index)
      Method for accessing name of type variable in indicated position. If no name is bound, will use placeholders (derived from 0-based index); if no type variable or argument exists with given index, null is returned.
      Parameters:
      index - Index of contained type to return
      Returns:
      Contained type at index, or null if no such type exists (no exception thrown)
    • toCanonical

      public abstract String toCanonical()
      Method that can be used to serialize type into form from which it can be fully deserialized from at a later point (using TypeFactory from mapper package). For simple types this is same as calling Class.getName(), but for structured types it may additionally contain type information about contents.
      Returns:
      String representation of the fully resolved type
