Class StaticMethodReturnType<T>

  • Type Parameters:
    T - the generic type of the static method's return type.

    public class StaticMethodReturnType<T>
    extends java.lang.Object
    Understands the return type of the static method to invoke.

    The following is an example of proper usage of this class:

       // Equivalent to call 'Jedi.setCommonPower("Jump")'
       staticMethod("setCommonPower").withParameterTypes(String.class)
                                     .in(Jedi.class)
                                     .invoke("Jump");
    
       // Equivalent to call 'Jedi.addPadawan()'
       staticMethod("addPadawan").in(Jedi.class).invoke();
    
       // Equivalent to call 'Jedi.commonPowerCount()'
       String name = staticMethod("commonPowerCount").withReturnType(String.class)
                                                     .in(Jedi.class)
                                                     .invoke();
    
       // Equivalent to call 'Jedi.getCommonPowers()'
       List<String> powers = staticMethod("getCommonPowers").withReturnType(new TypeRef<List<String>>() {})
                                                            .in(Jedi.class)
                                                            .invoke();
