Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
PsiJavaCodeReferenceElement	getInnermostComponentReferenceElement() Returns the reference element pointing to the referenced type, or if the type element is an array, the reference element for the innermost component type of the array.
PsiType	getType() Returns the type referenced by the type element.
default boolean	isInferredType() Returns true when a variable is declared as var name; The actual type should be inferred according to the JEP 286: Local-Variable Type Inference (http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/286).

Field Detail

EMPTY_ARRAY

static final PsiTypeElement[] EMPTY_ARRAY

The empty array of PSI directories which can be reused to avoid unnecessary allocations.

ARRAY_FACTORY

static final ArrayFactory<PsiTypeElement> ARRAY_FACTORY

Method Detail

getType

PsiType getType()

Returns the type referenced by the type element.

Note: when a containing element (field, method etc.) has C-style array declarations, the result of this method may differ from an actual type.

Returns:

the referenced type.

See Also:

PsiField.getType(), PsiMethod.getReturnType(), PsiParameter.getType(), PsiVariable.getType()

getInnermostComponentReferenceElement

PsiJavaCodeReferenceElement getInnermostComponentReferenceElement()

Returns the reference element pointing to the referenced type, or if the type element is an array, the reference element for the innermost component type of the array.

Returns:

the referenced element instance, or null if the type element references a primitive type.

isInferredType

default boolean isInferredType()

Returns true when a variable is declared as var name; The actual type should be inferred according to the JEP 286: Local-Variable Type Inference (http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/286). Applicable to local variables with initializers, foreach parameters, try-with-resources variables
