| Description |
\1 references the method signature (eg main(String[] args)), \2 references the method name (eg main), \3 references the args (eg String[] args), and \4 and up reference each arg in turn (including type names). Supports @interfaces, java keywords/primitives, generic classes (including bounded and unbounded parameters), varargs, and array classes, but due to recursion limitations, generic types can only go one level deep (List<String> is ok, but List<List<String>> isn't).
Does not match Constructors. |
