Returns an array of
Type objects representing the
lower bound(s) of this type variable. Note that if no lower bound is
explicitly declared, the lower bound is the type of
null.
In this case, a zero length array is returned.
For each lower bound B :
- if B is a parameterized type or a type variable, it is created,
(see
ParameterizedType
for the details of the creation process for parameterized types).
- Otherwise, B is resolved.
Returns:
an array of Types representing the lower bound(s) of this
type variable
Throws:
-
TypeNotPresentException - if any of the
bounds refers to a non-existent type declaration
-
MalformedParameterizedTypeException - if any of the
bounds refer to a parameterized type that cannot be instantiated
for any reason
