Java.InnerClassDeclaration

All Superinterfaces:

Java.Annotatable, Java.ClassDeclaration, Java.Locatable, Java.Scope, Java.TypeDeclaration

All Known Implementing Classes:

Java.AnonymousClassDeclaration, Java.LocalClassDeclaration, Java.MemberClassDeclaration, Java.MemberEnumDeclaration

Enclosing class:

Java
```
static interface Java.InnerClassDeclaration
extends Java.ClassDeclaration
```
Represents the declaration of an inner class, i.e. a class that exists in the context of zero or more "enclosing instances". These are anonymous classes, local classes and member classes.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`void`	`defineSyntheticField(IClass.IField iField)`	Inner classes have zero or more synthetic fields that hold references to their enclosing context: `this$<em>n</em>` (Mandatory for non-private non-static member classes; optional for private non-static member classes, local classes in non-static context, and anonymous classes in non-static context; forbidden for static member classes, local classes in static context, and anonymous classes in static context) Holds a reference to the immediately enclosing instance.

  - defineSyntheticField
```
void defineSyntheticField(IClass.IField iField)
                   throws CompileException
```
    Inner classes have zero or more synthetic fields that hold references to their enclosing context:
    
    this$<em>n</em>
    
    (Mandatory for non-private non-static member classes; optional for private non-static member classes, local classes in non-static context, and anonymous classes in non-static context; forbidden for static member classes, local classes in static context, and anonymous classes in static context) Holds a reference to the immediately enclosing instance. <em>n</em> is N-1 for the Nth nesting level; e.g. the public non-static member class of a package member class has a synthetic field this$0.
    
    val$<em>local-variable-name</em>
    
    (Allowed for local classes and anonymous classes; forbidden for member classes) Hold copies of final local variables of the defining context.
    
    Notice that these fields are not included in the IClass.IField array returned by IClass.getDeclaredIFields2().
    
    If a synthetic field with the same name exists already, then it must have the same type and the redefinition is ignored.

    Throws:
