### Method Detail

#### values

    public static JPrimitiveType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

    for (JPrimitiveType c : JPrimitiveType.values())
        System.out.println(c);

Returns:
  an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

#### valueOf

    public static JPrimitiveType valueOf(java.lang.String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:
  `name` - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
Returns:
  the enum constant with the specified name
Throws:
  `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
  `java.lang.NullPointerException` - if the argument is null

#### parse

    public static JPrimitiveType parse(java.lang.String name)

#### getErasedType

    public JType getErasedType()

Description copied from interface: `JType`
Returns this type with no type parameters or type variables. See the JLS Third Edition section on Type Erasure.

Specified by:
  `getErasedType` in interface `JType`

#### getJNISignature

    public java.lang.String getJNISignature()

Description copied from interface: `JType`
Returns the "field descriptor" for a type as specified by the Java Virtual Machine Specification. Examples:

- boolean = `Z`
- byte[] = `[B`
- java.lang.String = `Ljava/lang/String;`

Specified by:
  `getJNISignature` in interface `JType`

#### getLeafType

    public JType getLeafType()

Specified by:
  `getLeafType` in interface `JType`

#### getParameterizedQualifiedSourceName

    public java.lang.String getParameterizedQualifiedSourceName()

Description copied from interface: `JType`
Returns a type name as it would be specified in Java source, with the package name included. Includes the type parameters. If called on a type parameter, does not include any bounds. For example, a type Foo<T extends Bar> declared in com.example would be given as "com.example.Foo<T>", while the same type instantiated with Baz would be "com.example.Foo<com.example.Baz>".

Specified by:
  `getParameterizedQualifiedSourceName` in interface `JType`
