TypeInitializer

All Superinterfaces:

ByteCodeAppender

All Known Implementing Classes:

```
public interface TypeInitializer
extends ByteCodeAppender
```
A type initializer is responsible for defining a type's static initialization block.

apply

- Method Detail
  - isDefined
```
boolean isDefined()
```
    Indicates if this type initializer is defined.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if this type initializer is defined.
  - expandWith
```
TypeInitializer expandWith(ByteCodeAppender byteCodeAppender)
```
    Expands this type initializer with another byte code appender. For this to be possible, this type initializer must be defined.
    
    Parameters:
    
    byteCodeAppender - The byte code appender to apply as the type initializer.
    
    Returns:
    
    A defined type initializer.
  - wrap
```
TypeWriter.MethodPool.Record wrap(TypeWriter.MethodPool.Record record)
```
    Creates a method pool record that applies this type initializer while preserving the record that was supplied.
    
    Parameters:
    
    record - The record to wrap.
    
    Returns:
    
    A new record that represents the supplied record while also executing this type initializer.
