Methods Summary
public com.sun.javadoc.AnnotationTypeDoc	asAnnotationTypeDoc() Return this type as an AnnotationTypeDoc if it represents an annotation type. Array dimensions are ignored. return an AnnotationTypeDoc if the type is an annotation type, or null if it is not. since 1.5
public com.sun.javadoc.ClassDoc	asClassDoc() Return this type as a ClassDoc if it represents a class or interface. Array dimensions are ignored. If this type is a ParameterizedType, TypeVariable, or WildcardType, return the ClassDoc of the type's erasure. If this is an AnnotationTypeDoc, return this as a ClassDoc (but see {@link #asAnnotationTypeDoc()}). If this is a primitive type, return null. return the ClassDoc of this type, or null if it is a primitive type.
public com.sun.javadoc.ParameterizedType	asParameterizedType() Return this type as a ParameterizedType if it represents an invocation of a generic class or interface. Array dimensions are ignored. return a ParameterizedType if the type is an invocation of a generic type, or null if it is not. since 1.5
public com.sun.javadoc.TypeVariable	asTypeVariable() Return this type as a TypeVariable if it represents a type variable. Array dimensions are ignored. return a TypeVariable if the type is a type variable, or null if it is not. since 1.5
public com.sun.javadoc.WildcardType	asWildcardType() Return this type as a WildcardType if it represents a wildcard type. return a WildcardType if the type is a wildcard type, or null if it is not. since 1.5
public java.lang.String	dimension() Return the type's dimension information, as a string. For example, a two dimensional array of String returns "[][]".
public boolean	isPrimitive() Return true if this type represents a primitive type. return true if this type represents a primitive type. since 1.5
public java.lang.String	qualifiedTypeName() Return qualified name of type excluding any dimension information. For example, a two dimensional array of String returns "java.lang.String".
public java.lang.String	simpleTypeName() Return the simple name of this type excluding any dimension information. This is the unqualified name of the type, except that for nested types only the identifier of the innermost type is included. For example, the class {@code Outer.Inner} returns "Inner". since 1.5
public java.lang.String	toString() Return a string representation of the type. This includes any dimension information and type arguments. For example, a two dimensional array of String may return "java.lang.String[][]", and the parameterized type {@code List} may return "{@code java.util.List}". return a string representation of the type.
public java.lang.String	typeName() Return unqualified name of type excluding any dimension information. For example, a two dimensional array of String returns "String".
