Package net.bytebuddy.description

Classes of this package allow the representation of Java classes, their member and their meta data.

Interface Summary

Interface	Description
ByteCodeElement	Implementations describe an element represented in byte code, i.e. a type, a field or a method or a constructor.
ByteCodeElement.Token<T extends ByteCodeElement.Token<T>>	A token representing a byte code element.
ByteCodeElement.TypeDependant<T extends ByteCodeElement.TypeDependant<?,S>,S extends ByteCodeElement.Token<S>>	A type dependant describes an element that is an extension of a type definition, i.e. a field, method or method parameter.
DeclaredByType	This interface represents all elements that can be declared within a type, i.e. other types and type members.
ModifierReviewable	Implementations of this interface can be described in terms of a Java modifier.
NamedElement	Represents a Java element with a name.
NamedElement.WithGenericName	A named element with a generic type name.
NamedElement.WithRuntimeName	A named element with a name that has a particular meaning to the Java runtime.
TypeVariableSource	A type variable source represents a byte code element that can declare type variables.
TypeVariableSource.Visitor<T>	A visitor that can be applied to a type variable source.

Class Summary

Class	Description
ByteCodeElement.Token.TokenList<S extends ByteCodeElement.Token<S>>	A list of tokens.
ModifierReviewable.AbstractBase	An abstract base implementation of a ModifierReviewable class.
TypeVariableSource.AbstractBase	An abstract base implementation of a type variable source.

Enum Summary

Enum	Description
TypeVariableSource.Visitor.NoOp	A none-operational implementation of a type variable visitor that simply returns the visited source.

Package net.bytebuddy.description Description

Classes of this package allow the representation of Java classes, their member and their meta data. Using the reflection API, it would be required to load classes but by using these descriptions, it is possible to represent byte code elements without pripor loading.
