package javax.lang.model.type;

import javax.lang.model.element.ExecutableElement;



A pseudo-type used where no actual type is appropriate. The kinds of NoType are: 
    

  • VOID - corresponds to the keyword void. 
  • PACKAGE - the pseudo-type of a package element. 
  • MODULE - the pseudo-type of a module element. 
  • NONE - used in other cases where no actual type is appropriate; for example, the superclass of java.lang.Object.
