  the length of this path.

• getStep

  public int getStep(int index)

  Returns the value of the given step of this path.

  Parameters:

  index - an index between 0 and getLength(), exclusive.

  Returns:

  ARRAY_ELEMENT, INNER_TYPE, WILDCARD_BOUND, or TYPE_ARGUMENT.

• getStepArgument

  public int getStepArgument(int index)

• fromString

  public static TypePath fromString(java.lang.String typePath)

  Converts a type path in string form, in the format used by toString(), into a TypePath object.

  Parameters:

  typePath - a type path in string form, in the format used by toString(). May be null or empty.

  Returns:

  the corresponding TypePath object, or null if the path is empty.

• toString

  public java.lang.String toString()

  Returns a string representation of this type path. ARRAY_ELEMENT steps are represented with '[', INNER_TYPE steps with '.', WILDCARD_BOUND steps with '*' and TYPE_ARGUMENT steps with their type argument index in decimal form.
