Modifier and TypeMethodDescriptionReturns the descriptor string for thisTypeDescriptorobject.
Method Details
descriptorString
String descriptorString()Returns the descriptor string for thisTypeDescriptorobject. If thisTypeDescriptorobject can be described in nominal form, then this method returns a type descriptor as specified in JVMS4.3. The result descriptor string can be used to produce anominal descriptor. Otherwise, the result string is not a type descriptor. Nonominal descriptor can be produced from the result string.- Returns:
- the descriptor string for this
