Interface AnnotationConstantValueEntry

All Superinterfaces:
PoolEntry
All Known Subinterfaces:
DoubleEntry, FloatEntry, IntegerEntry, LongEntry, Utf8Entry

public sealed interface AnnotationConstantValueEntry extends PoolEntry permits DoubleEntry, FloatEntry, IntegerEntry, LongEntry, Utf8Entry
A constant pool entry that may be used by annotation constant values, which includes the four kinds of primitive constants and UTF8 constants. These entries are also the only entries that do not refer to other constant pool entries.
API Note:
An annotation constant value entry alone is not sufficient to determine the annotation constant; for example, an IntegerEntry of 1 can mean true in AnnotationValue.OfBoolean or 1 in AnnotationValue.OfInt.
