as well as raw types.
While a TypeElement
represents a class or interface
element, a DeclaredType
represents a class
or interface type, the latter being a use
(or invocation) of the former.
See TypeElement
for more on this distinction.
The supertypes (both class and interface types) of a declared
type may be found using the Types.directSupertypes(TypeMirror)
method. This returns the
supertypes with any type arguments substituted in.
