Constructor Detail

ArrayType

public ArrayType(byte type,
                 int dimensions)

Convenience constructor for array type, e.g. int[]

Parameters:

type - array type, e.g. T_INT

ArrayType

public ArrayType(java.lang.String class_name,
                 int dimensions)

Convenience constructor for reference array type, e.g. Object[]

Parameters:

class_name - complete name of class (java.lang.String, e.g.)

ArrayType

public ArrayType(Type type,
                 int dimensions)

Constructor for array of given type

Parameters:

type - type of array (may be an array itself)

Method Detail

getBasicType

public Type getBasicType()

Returns:

basic type of array, i.e., for int[][][] the basic type is int

getElementType

public Type getElementType()

Returns:

element type of array, i.e., for int[][][] the element type is int[][]

getDimensions

public int getDimensions()

Returns:

number of dimensions of array

hashcode

public int hashcode()

Returns:

a hash code value for the object.

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object type)

Overrides:

equals in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

true if both type objects refer to the same array type.
