getGenericElement
Element getGenericElement()
Returns the generic class, interface, method, or constructor that is parameterized by this type parameter.
- Returns:
- the generic class, interface, method, or constructor that is parameterized by this type parameter
getBounds
List<? extends TypeMirror> getBounds()
Returns the bounds of this type parameter. These are the types given by the extends clause used to declare this type parameter. If no explicit extends clause was used, then java.lang.Object is considered to be the sole bound.
- Returns:
- the bounds of this type parameter, or an empty list if there are none
