abstract public class: AbstractRepository [javadoc | source]

java.lang.Object
   sun.reflect.generics.repository.AbstractRepository

Direct Known Subclasses:
ConstructorRepository, FieldRepository, GenericDeclRepository, MethodRepository, ClassRepository

Abstract superclass for representing the generic type information for a reflective entity. The code is not dependent on a particular reflective implementation. It is designed to be used unchanged by at least core reflection and JDI.

Constructor:

Constructor:
protected AbstractRepository(String rawSig, GenericsFactory f) { tree = parse(rawSig); factory = f; } Constructor. Should only be used by subclasses. Concrete subclasses should make their constructors private and provide public factory methods. Parameters: `rawSig` - - the generic signature of the reflective object that this repository is servicing `f` - - a factory that will provide instances of reflective objects when this repository converts its AST

 protected AbstractRepository(String rawSig,
    GenericsFactory f) {
        tree = parse(rawSig);
        factory = f;
}

Constructor. Should only be used by subclasses. Concrete subclasses should make their constructors private and provide public factory methods.

Parameters:

rawSig - - the generic signature of the reflective object that this repository is servicing

f - - a factory that will provide instances of reflective objects when this repository converts its AST
