Method Details

targetType

public static @Nullable TargetType targetType(VisitorState state)

Returns the target type of the tree at the given VisitorState's path, or else null.

For example, the target type of an assignment expression is the variable's type, and the target type of a return statement is the enclosing method's type.

A general mental model is that the target type of an expression where the value is used is the highest supertype that you could cast to and still have this compile.
