getSignature

public String getSignature()
                    throws DebugException

Returns the JNI-style signature for the type of this value, or null if the value is null.

Returns:

signature, or null if signature is null

Throws:

DebugException - if this method fails. Reasons include:

• Failure communicating with the VM. The DebugException's status code contains the underlying exception responsible for the failure.
• The type associated with the signature is not yet loaded
