Method Details

isEquivalent

public static boolean isEquivalent(Class<?> clazz,
 Type type)

Recursively evaluates strict equivalence between a concrete class and a generic type.

Parameters:

clazz - The concrete class to evaluate.

type - The target reflection type (Class, ParameterizedType, GenericArrayType, etc.).

Returns:

true if the class satisfies the exact type constraints.

isEquivalent

public static boolean isEquivalent(Class<?> a,
 Class<?> b)

Evaluates strict equivalence between two concrete classes, accounting for primitive wrappers.

Parameters:

a - The first class.

b - The second class.

Returns:

true if the classes are equal or represent the same primitive/wrapper pair.

isPrimitiveMatch

public static boolean isPrimitiveMatch(Class<?> a,
 Class<?> b)

Maps primitive classes to their corresponding wrapper classes.

Parameters:

a - The wrapper class (e.g., Integer.class).

b - The primitive class (e.g., int.class).

Returns:

true if the classes represent the same underlying primitive type.
