                 Metadata metadata)

Create an empty Interface object that will be constructed by calls to other member functions.

Method Detail

isAbstract

public boolean isAbstract()

Return whether this interface is abstract. An interface is always abstract, even if it contains no methods.

Specified by:

isAbstract in class Extendable

isInterface

public boolean isInterface()

Return whether this object represents an interface (true).

Specified by:

isInterface in class Extendable

hasStaticMethod

public boolean hasStaticMethod(boolean all)

Return whether this interface has any static methods (always false).

Specified by:

hasStaticMethod in class Extendable

addParentInterface

public void addParentInterface(Interface parent)

Add a parent interface to this interface. This method does not check that the interfaces and methods are compatible; it simply copies the methods and interface parents and adds them to this interface.

Specified by:

addParentInterface in class Extendable
