      Constructs a class value for a type that is present.
      Parameters:
      theClass - The type

    • AnnotationClassValue

      @Internal public AnnotationClassValue(@NonNull @NonNull String name, boolean instantiated)
      Constructs a class value for a type that is present.
      Parameters:

  • Method Details

    • getInstance

      @NonNull public @NonNull Optional<T> getInstance()
      Returns the backing instance if there is one. Note this method will not attempt to instantiate the class via reflection and is designed for use via byte code generation.

      Returns:
      Whether this class value is instantiated
