isAbstract

public boolean isAbstract()

Return true if this type does not correspond to a single token class. This occurs if the type is not instantiable, or it represents either an abstract base class or an interface. This method should be overridden in derived classes to return true only for types which are not abstract.

Returns:

true.

isCompatible

public boolean isCompatible(Type type)

Test if the argument type is compatible with this type. The method returns true if this type is UNKNOWN, since any type is a substitution instance of it. If this type is not UNKNOWN, this method returns true if the argument type is less than or equal to this type in the type lattice, and false otherwise.

Specified by:

isCompatible in interface Type

Parameters:

type - An instance of Type.

Returns:

True if the argument is compatible with this type.

isConstant

Returns:

False.

isInstantiable

public boolean isInstantiable()

Test if this type corresponds to an instantiable token classes.

Specified by:
