Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`<R,P> R`	`accept(ElementVisitor<R,P> v, P p)`	Applies a visitor to this element.
`TypeMirror`	`asType()`	Returns the type defined by this element.
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)`	Returns `true` if the argument represents the same element as `this`, or `false` otherwise.
`<A extends Annotation> A`	`getAnnotation(Class<A> annotationType)`	Returns this construct's annotation of the specified type if such an annotation is present, else `null`.
`List<? extends AnnotationMirror>`	`getAnnotationMirrors()`	Returns the annotations that are directly present on this construct.
`<A extends Annotation> A[]`	`getAnnotationsByType(Class<A> annotationType)`	Returns annotations of the specified type that are associated with this construct.
`List<? extends Element>`	`getEnclosedElements()`	Returns the elements that are, loosely speaking, directly enclosed by this element.
`Element`	`getEnclosingElement()`	Returns the innermost element within which this element is, loosely speaking, enclosed.
`ElementKind`	`getKind()`	Returns the `kind` of this element.
`Set<Modifier>`	`getModifiers()`	Returns the modifiers of this element, excluding annotations.
`Name`	`getSimpleName()`	Returns the simple (unqualified) name of this element.
`int`	`hashCode()`	Obeys the general contract of `Object.hashCode`.
