Method Detail

newInstance

static <T> T newInstance(Class<? extends T> clazz)

getAnnotatedAnnotation

static <T extends Annotation> Optional<Annotation> getAnnotatedAnnotation(AnnotatedElement element,
                                                                          Class<T> targetAnnotation)

Returns any annotation instance on the annotated element which is itself annotated with the target annotation. For example, given the annotation and class:

 @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
 @Target(ElementType.ANNOTATION_TYPE)
 public @interface MyAnnotation {

     String value();

 }
 
 @MyAnnotation("hello")
 public class MyClass {
     
 }
 

Then getAnnotatedAnnotation(MyClass.class, MyAnnotation.class).value() will return "hello".
