Interface Method

All Superinterfaces:
Annotatable, Comparable<MethodReference>, Member, MethodReference, Reference
All Known Implementing Classes:
BuilderMethod, ClassProto.ReparentedMethod, DexBackedMethod, ImmutableMethod, MethodRewriter.RewrittenMethod, PoolMethod, ReflectionConstructor, ReflectionMethod

public interface Method extends MethodReference, Member
This class represents a specific method definition in a class. It also acts as a MethodReference to itself. Any equality/comparison is based on its identity as a MethodReference, and shouldn't take into account any non-MethodReference specifics of this method.
  • Method Details

    • getDefiningClass

      @Nonnull String getDefiningClass()
      Gets the type of the class that defines this method.
      Specified by:
      getDefiningClass in interface Member
      Specified by:
      getDefiningClass in interface MethodReference
      Returns:
      The type of the class that defines this method
    • getName

      @Nonnull String getName()
      Gets the name of this method.
      Specified by:
      getName in interface Member
      Specified by:
      getName in interface MethodReference
      Returns:
      The name of this method
    • getParameters

      @Nonnull List<? extends MethodParameter> getParameters()
      Gets a list of the parameters of this method. As per the MethodReference interface, the MethodParameter objects contained in the returned list also act as a simple reference to the type of the parameter. However, the MethodParameter object can also contain additional information about the parameter. Note: In some implementations, the returned list is likely to *not* provide efficient random access.
      Returns:
      A list of MethodParameter objects, representing the parameters of this method.
    • getReturnType

      @Nonnull String getReturnType()
      Gets the return type of this method.
      Specified by:
      getReturnType in interface MethodReference
      Returns:
      The return type of this method.
    • getAccessFlags

      int getAccessFlags()
      Gets the access flags for this method. This will be a combination of the AccessFlags.* flags that are marked as compatible for use with a method.
      Specified by:
      getAccessFlags in interface Member
      Returns:
      The access flags for this method
    • getAnnotations

      @Nonnull Set<? extends Annotation> getAnnotations()
      Gets a set of the annotations that are applied to this method. The annotations in the returned set are guaranteed to have unique types.
      Specified by:
      getAnnotations in interface Annotatable
      Returns:
      A set of the annotations that are applied to this method
    • getHiddenApiRestrictions

      @Nonnull Set<HiddenApiRestriction> getHiddenApiRestrictions()
      Gets the hidden api restrictions for this method. This will contain at most 1 normal flag (with isDomainSpecificApiFlag() = false), and 1 domain-specific api flag (with isDomainSpecificApiFlag() = true)
      Specified by:
      getHiddenApiRestrictions in interface Member
      Returns:
      A set of the hidden api restrictions for this method.
    • getImplementation

      @Nullable MethodImplementation getImplementation()
      Gets a MethodImplementation object that defines the implementation of the method. If this is an abstract method in an abstract class, or an interface method in an interface definition, then the method has no implementation, and this will return null.
      Returns:
      A MethodImplementation object defining the implementation of this method, or null if the method has no implementation
