public interface ClassDeclaration extends TypeDeclaration
Represents the declaration of a class. For the declaration of an interface, seeInterfaceDeclaration
. Provides access to information about the class, its members, and its constructors. Note that an enum is a kind of class.While a ClassDeclaration represents the declaration of a class, a
ClassType
represents a class type. SeeTypeDeclaration
