 101 /**
 102  * Instances of the class {@code Class} represent classes and
 103  * interfaces in a running Java application. An enum class and a record
 104  * class are kinds of class; an annotation interface is a kind of
 105  * interface. Every array also belongs to a class that is reflected as
 106  * a {@code Class} object that is shared by all arrays with the same
 107  * element type and number of dimensions.  The primitive Java types
 108  * ({@code boolean}, {@code byte}, {@code char}, {@code short}, {@code
 109  * int}, {@code long}, {@code float}, and {@code double}), and the
 110  * keyword {@code void} are also represented as {@code Class} objects.
 111  *
 112  * <p> {@code Class} has no public constructor. Instead a {@code Class}
 113  * object is constructed automatically by the Java Virtual Machine when
 114  * a class is derived from the bytes of a {@code class} file through
 115  * the invocation of one of the following methods:
 116  * <ul>
 117  * <li> {@link ClassLoader#defineClass(String, byte[], int, int) ClassLoader::defineClass}
 118  * <li> {@link java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles.Lookup#defineClass(byte[])
 119  *      java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles.Lookup::defineClass}
 120  * <li> {@link java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles.Lookup#defineHiddenClass(byte[], boolean, MethodHandles.Lookup.ClassOption...)
 121  *      java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles.Lookup::defineHiddenClass}
 122  * </ul>
 123  *
 124  * <p> The methods of class {@code Class} expose many characteristics of a
 125  * class or interface. Most characteristics are derived from the {@code class}
 126  * file that the class loader passed to the Java Virtual Machine or
 127  * from the {@code class} file passed to {@code Lookup::defineClass}
 128  * or {@code Lookup::defineHiddenClass}.
 129  * A few characteristics are determined by the class loading environment
 130  * at run time, such as the module returned by {@link #getModule() getModule()}.
 131  *
 132  * <p> The following example uses a {@code Class} object to print the
 133  * class name of an object:
 134  *
 135  * {@snippet lang="java" :
 136  * void printClassName(Object obj) {
 137  *     System.out.println("The class of " + obj +
 138  *                        " is " + obj.getClass().getName());
 139  * }}
 140  *
 141  * It is also possible to get the {@code Class} object for a named
 142  * class or interface (or for {@code void}) using a <dfn>class literal</dfn>
 143  * (JLS {@jls 15.8.2}).
 144  * For example:
 145  *
 146  * {@snippet lang="java" :
 147  * System.out.println("The name of class Foo is: " + Foo.class.getName()); // @highlight substring="Foo.class"
 148  * }
 149  *
 150  * <p> Some methods of class {@code Class} expose whether the declaration of
 151  * a class or interface in Java source code was <em>enclosed</em> within
 152  * another declaration. Other methods describe how a class or interface
 153  * is situated in a <dfn>{@index "nest"}</dfn>. A nest is a set of
 154  * classes and interfaces, in the same run-time package, that
 155  * allow mutual access to their {@code private} members.
 156  * The classes and interfaces are known as <dfn>{@index "nestmates"}</dfn>
 157  * (JVMS {@jvms 4.7.29}).
 158  * One nestmate acts as the
 159  * <dfn>nest host</dfn> (JVMS {@jvms 4.7.28}), and enumerates the other nestmates which
 160  * belong to the nest; each of them in turn records it as the nest host.
 161  * The classes and interfaces which belong to a nest, including its host, are
 162  * determined when
 163  * {@code class} files are generated, for example, a Java compiler
 164  * will typically record a top-level class as the host of a nest where the
 165  * other members are the classes and interfaces whose declarations are
 166  * enclosed within the top-level class declaration.
 167  *
 168  * <p> Unless otherwise specified, methods in this class throw a
 169  * {@link NullPointerException} when they are called with {@code null}
 170  * or an array that contains {@code null} as an argument.
 171  *
 172  * <h2><a id=hiddenClasses>Hidden Classes</a></h2>
 173  * A class or interface created by the invocation of
 174  * {@link java.lang.invoke.MethodHandles.Lookup#defineHiddenClass(byte[], boolean, MethodHandles.Lookup.ClassOption...)
 175  * Lookup::defineHiddenClass} is a {@linkplain Class#isHidden() <dfn>hidden</dfn>}
 176  * class or interface.
 177  * All kinds of class, including enum classes and record classes, may be
 178  * hidden classes; all kinds of interface, including annotation interfaces,
 179  * may be hidden interfaces.
 180  *
 181  * The {@linkplain #getName() name of a hidden class or interface} is
 182  * not a {@linkplain ClassLoader##binary-name binary name},
 183  * which means the following:
 184  * <ul>
 185  * <li>A hidden class or interface cannot be referenced by the constant pools
 186  *     of other classes and interfaces.
 187  * <li>A hidden class or interface cannot be described in
 188  *     {@linkplain java.lang.constant.ConstantDesc <em>nominal form</em>} by
 189  *     {@link #describeConstable() Class::describeConstable},
 190  *     {@link ClassDesc#of(String) ClassDesc::of}, or
 191  *     {@link ClassDesc#ofDescriptor(String) ClassDesc::ofDescriptor}.
 192  * <li>A hidden class or interface cannot be discovered by {@link #forName Class::forName}
 193  *     or {@link ClassLoader#loadClass(String, boolean) ClassLoader::loadClass}.
 194  * </ul>
 195  *
 196  * A hidden class or interface is never an array class, but may be
 197  * the element type of an array. In all other respects, the fact that
 198  * a class or interface is hidden has no bearing on the characteristics
 199  * exposed by the methods of class {@code Class}.
 200  *
 201  * <h2><a id=implicitClasses>Implicitly Declared Classes</a></h2>
 202  *
 203  * Conventionally, a Java compiler, starting from a source file for an
 204  * implicitly declared class, say {@code HelloWorld.java}, creates a
 205  * similarly-named {@code class} file, {@code HelloWorld.class}, where
 206  * the class stored in that {@code class} file is named {@code
 207  * "HelloWorld"}, matching the base names of the source and {@code
 208  * class} files.
 209  *
 210  * For the {@code Class} object of an implicitly declared class {@code
 211  * HelloWorld}, the methods to get the {@linkplain #getName name} and
 212  * {@linkplain #getTypeName type name} return results
 213  * equal to {@code "HelloWorld"}. The {@linkplain #getSimpleName
 214  * simple name} of such an implicitly declared class is {@code "HelloWorld"} and
 215  * the {@linkplain #getCanonicalName canonical name} is {@code "HelloWorld"}.
 216  *
 217  * @param <T> the type of the class modeled by this {@code Class}
 218  * object.  For example, the type of {@code String.class} is {@code
 219  * Class<String>}.  Use {@code Class<?>} if the class being modeled is
 220  * unknown.
 221  *
 222  * @see     java.lang.ClassLoader#defineClass(byte[], int, int)
 223  * @since   1.0
