`List<? extends Element>`	`getEnclosedElements()`	Returns the elements that are, loosely speaking, directly enclosed by this element.
`ElementKind`	`getKind()`	Returns the `kind` of this element.
`Set<Modifier>`	`getModifiers()`	Returns the modifiers of this element, excluding annotations.
`int`	`hashCode()`	Obeys the general contract of `Object.hashCode`.

Method Details

asType

TypeMirror asType()

Returns the type of this record component. Note that the types of record components range over many kinds of types, including primitive types, declared types, and array types.

Specified by:

asType in interface Element

Returns:

the type of this record component

See Also:

getEnclosingElement

Element getEnclosingElement()

Returns the enclosing element of this record component. The enclosing element of a record component is the record class declaring the record component.

Specified by:

getEnclosingElement in interface Element

Returns:

the enclosing element of this record component

See Also:

getSimpleName

Name getSimpleName()

Returns the simple name of this record component.

The name of each record component must be distinct from the names of all other record components of the same record.

Specified by:

getSimpleName in interface Element

Returns:

the simple name of this record component

See Java Language Specification:

6.2 Names and Identifiers

See Also:

getAccessor

ExecutableElement getAccessor()

Returns the executable element for the accessor associated with the given record component.

Returns:: the record component accessor.
