Type patterns are defined by an annotation or by fully qualified class name. Annotation expressions are not allowed to have wildcards within them, but class expressions are.
org.acme.SomeClass
matches that class.
org.acme.*
will match
org.acme.SomeClass
as well as
org.acme.SomeClass.SomeInnerClass
@javax.ejb.Entity
will match any class tagged as such.
String
or
Object
are illegal. You must specify the fully
qualified name of every java class. Even those under the
java.lang
package.
To reference all subtypes of a certain class (or implementors of an interface), the
$instanceof{}
expression can be used. Wildcards and annotations may also be used
within $instanceof{}
expressions.
$instanceof{org.acme.SomeInterface} $instanceof{@org.acme.SomeAnnotation} $instanceof{org.acme.interfaces.*}
are all allowed.
For very complex type expressions, the Typedef construct can be used. To reference a Typedef within a class
expression
$typedef{id}
is used.
