Method Detail

isAnnotationPresent

boolean isAnnotationPresent(java.lang.Class<? extends java.lang.annotation.Annotation> annotationType)

Checks if this list contains an annotation of the given type.

Parameters:

annotationType - The type to find in the list.

Returns:

true if the list contains the annotation type.

isAnnotationPresent

boolean isAnnotationPresent(TypeDescription annotationType)

Checks if this list contains an annotation of the given type.

Parameters:

annotationType - The type to find in the list.

Returns:

true if the list contains the annotation type.

ofType

<T extends java.lang.annotation.Annotation> AnnotationDescription.Loadable<T> ofType(java.lang.Class<T> annotationType)

Finds the first annotation of the given type and returns it.

Type Parameters:

T - The annotation type.

Parameters:

annotationType - The type to be found in the list.

Returns:

The annotation description or null if no such annotation was found.

ofType

AnnotationDescription ofType(TypeDescription annotationType)

Finds the first annotation of the given type and returns it.

Parameters:

annotationType - The type to be found in the list.

Returns:

The annotation description or null if no such annotation was found.

inherited

AnnotationList inherited(java.util.Set<? extends TypeDescription> ignoredTypes)

Returns only annotations that are marked as Inherited as long as they are not contained by the set of ignored annotation types.

Parameters:

ignoredTypes - A list of annotation types to be ignored from the lookup.

Returns:

A list of all inherited annotations besides of the given ignored types.

visibility

AnnotationList visibility(ElementMatcher<? super java.lang.annotation.RetentionPolicy> matcher)

Only retains annotations with the given retention policy.

Parameters:

matcher - A matcher for the required retention policy.

Returns:

A of annotations only with elements

asTypeList

TypeList asTypeList()

Returns a list of the annotation types of this list.

Returns:

A list of the annotation types of this list.
