Uses of Interface
java.lang.invoke.TypeDescriptor
Package
Description
Provides classes that are fundamental to the design of the Java
programming language.
Classes and interfaces to represent nominal descriptors for run-time
entities such as classes or method handles, and classfile entities such as
constant pool entries or
invokedynamic
call sites.The
java.lang.invoke
package provides low-level primitives for interacting
with the Java Virtual Machine.The
java.lang.runtime
package provides low-level runtime support
for the Java language.-

TypeDescriptor.OfField<F extends TypeDescriptor.OfField<F>>
An entity that has a field type descriptor.static interface
TypeDescriptor.OfMethod<F extends TypeDescriptor.OfField<F>,
M extends TypeDescriptor.OfMethod<F, M>> An entity that has a method type descriptor Method descriptors conforming to JVMS 4.3.3 can be described nominally viaMethodType::describeConstable
; otherwise they cannot be described nominally.Modifier and TypeClassDescriptionfinal class
A method type represents the arguments and return type accepted and returned by a method handle, or the arguments and return type passed and expected by a method handle caller. -
