      Gets the reference name for this object. This includes named types like constructors, prototypes, and enums. It notably does not include literal types like strings and booleans and structural types.
      Returns:
      the object's name or null if this is an anonymous object
    • toMaybeTemplateType

      public TemplateType toMaybeTemplateType()
      Description copied from class: JSType
      Downcasts this to a TemplateType, or returns null if this is not a function.

      public boolean hasAnyTemplateTypesInternal()
    • visit

      public <T> T visit(Visitor<T> visitor)
      Description copied from class: JSType
      Visit this type with the given visitor.
      Returns:

    • hasReferenceName

      public boolean hasReferenceName()
      Description copied from class: ObjectType
      Returns true if the object is named.
      Overrides:
      hasReferenceName in class ObjectType

    • matchesNumberContext

      public boolean matchesNumberContext()
      Description copied from class: JSType
      This predicate is used to test whether a given type can appear in a numeric context, such as an operand of a multiply operator.
      Overrides:
      matchesNumberContext in class JSType
    • matchesStringContext

      public boolean matchesStringContext()
      Description copied from class: JSType
      This predicate is used to test whether a given type can appear in a String context, such as an operand of a string concat (+) operator. All types have at least the potential for converting to String. When we add externally defined types, such as a browser OM, we may choose to add types that do not automatically convert to String.
      Overrides:
      matchesStringContext in class JSType
    • matchesObjectContext

      public boolean matchesObjectContext()
      Description copied from class: JSType
      This predicate is used to test whether a given type can appear in an Object context, such as the expression in a with statement. Most types we will encounter, except notably null, have at least the potential for converting to Object. Host defined objects can get peculiar.
      Overrides:
      matchesObjectContext in class JSType
    • canBeCalled

      public boolean canBeCalled()
      Description copied from class: JSType

      canBeCalled in class JSType
      Returns:
      true if this type might be callable.

      Compares this and that.
      Overrides:
      testForEquality in class ObjectType
      Returns:
      • TernaryValue.TRUE if the comparison of values of this type and that always succeed (such as undefined compared to null)
      • TernaryValue.FALSE if the comparison of values of this type and that always fails (such as undefined compared to number)
      • TernaryValue.UNKNOWN if the comparison can succeed or fail depending on the concrete values
    • isSubtype

      public boolean isSubtype(JSType that)
      Description copied from class: JSType
      Checks whether this is a subtype of that.

      Subtyping rules:

      • (unknown) — every type is a subtype of the Unknown type.
      • (no) — the No type is a subtype of every type.
      • (no-object) — the NoObject type is a subtype of every object type (i.e. subtypes of the Object type).
      • (ref) — a type is a subtype of itself.
      • (union-l) — A union type is a subtype of a type U if all the union type's constituents are a subtype of U. Formally
        (T<sub>1</sub>, &hellip;, T<sub>n</sub>) &lt;: U if and only T<sub>k</sub> &lt;: U for all k &isin; 1..n.
      • (union-r) — A type U is a subtype of a union type if it is a subtype of one of the union type's constituents. Formally
        U &lt;: (T<sub>1</sub>, &hellip;, T<sub>n</sub>) if and only if U &lt;: T<sub>k</sub> for some index k.
      • (objects) — an Object O<sub>1</sub> is a subtype of an object O<sub>2</sub> if it has more properties than O<sub>2</sub> and all common properties are pairwise subtypes.
      Overrides:
      isSubtype in class JSType
      Returns:
      this &lt;: that
