    Parameters:
    
    type - array type, e.g. T_INT
  - ArrayType
```
public ArrayType(java.lang.String class_name,
                 int dimensions)
```
    Convenience constructor for reference array type, e.g. Object[]
    
    Parameters:

```
    Constructor for array of given type
    
    Parameters:
    
    type - type of array (may be an array itself)
- Method Detail
  - getBasicType
```
public Type getBasicType()
```
    Returns:
    
    basic type of array, i.e., for int[][][] the basic type is int
  - getElementType
```
public Type getElementType()
```
    Returns:
    
    element type of array, i.e., for int[][][] the element type is int[][]
  - getDimensions
```
public int getDimensions()
```
    Returns:
    
    number of dimensions of array
  - hashCode
```
public int hashCode()
```
    Overrides:
    
    hashCode in class Type
    
    Returns:
    
    a hash code value for the object.
  - equals
```
public boolean equals(java.lang.Object _type)
```
    Overrides:
    
    equals in class Type
    
    Returns:
