Method Detail

replaceTypeElementIfNecessary

public static TypeElement replaceTypeElementIfNecessary(Elements elementUtils,
                                                        TypeElement element)

When running during Eclipse Incremental Compilation, we might get a TypeElement that has an UnresolvedTypeBinding and which is not automatically resolved. In that case, getEnclosedElements returns an empty list. We take that as a hint to check if the TypeElement resolved by FQN might have any enclosed elements and, if so, return the resolved element.

Parameters:

elementUtils - element utils

element - the original element

Returns:

the element freshly resolved using the qualified name, if the original element did not return any enclosed elements, whereas the resolved element does return enclosed elements.
