Method Detail

forClass

public static <T> NativeType<T> forClass(Class<T> simpleType)

Creates a NativeType representation for classes that are neither List nor Map subclasses.

Type Parameters:

T - the static type of simpleType.

Parameters:

simpleType - the Java class to be represented.

Returns:

a new NativeType instance.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if a List or Map subclass is passed as an argument.

listOf

public static <T> NativeType<List<T>> listOf(NativeType<T> elementType)

Creates a NativeType representation for a List of some elementType.

Type Parameters:

T - the static type of the elements in the List.

Parameters:

elementType - the type of elements in the List.

Returns:

a new NativeType instance.

mapOf

public static <T> NativeType<Map<String,T>> mapOf(NativeType<T> elementType)

Creates a NativeType representation for a Map of String to some elementType.

Type Parameters:

T - the static type of the values in the Map.

Parameters:

elementType - the type of values in the Map.

Returns:

a new NativeType instance.

forType

public static <T> NativeType<T> forType(Type type)

Creates a NativeType for the given Java type description. This particular API is unsafe and should not be used if any of the other APIs can be.

Type Parameters:

T - the static type of the represented type. This operation is not checked, leaving the caller responsible for ensuring the correct type is specified.

Parameters:

type - the Type to be represented. It can be any type, including a Class reference, however when a Class instance is available, the caller should use forClass(Class), listOf(NativeType) and mapOf(NativeType) appropriately instead, as this operation is not checked at runtime.

Returns:

a new NativeType instance.
