Introduction

This library allows you to

• Check if two types are supertypes of each other

• Get the erasure of a type

• Calculate the exact supertype of a given class

  Example

  For

  class X<T> implements List<List<T>> {...}

  and

  class Y extends X<String>

  the exact supertype for interface List of Y is List<List<String>>.

• Get the exact return type or parameter types of methods and types of fields (taking type parameters into account)

• Apply capture conversion

With full support for wildcards, array types, raw types and captured types
