getClassHierarchy

• getClassHierarchy(): string[]

  Parameters

  • className: string

  Returns boolean

hasMetadata

• hasMetadata(): boolean

  Returns boolean

isAssignableFrom

• isAssignableFrom(other: Type): boolean

  Inspired from: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.type.isassignablefrom For (most) generics, type invariance is expected (assumed) - neither covariance, nor contravariance are supported yet (will be supported in a next release).

  One exception though: for OptionType, we simulate covariance for missing (not provided) values. For example, Option is assignable from Option<?>. For more details, see the implementation of OptionType and @OptionalType.
