abstract val name: String

JVM

upperBounds

Upper bounds, or generic constraints imposed on this type parameter. See the Kotlin language documentation for more information.

abstract val upperBounds: List<KType>

abstract val variance: KVariance

Extension Properties

JVM

1.1

starProjectedType

Creates an instance of KType with the given classifier, substituting all its type parameters with star projections. The resulting type is not marked as nullable and does not have any annotations.

val KClassifier.starProjectedType: KType

Extension Functions

JVM

1.1

Creates a KType instance with the given classifier, type arguments, nullability and annotations. If the number of passed type arguments is not equal to the total number of type parameters of a classifier, an exception is thrown. If any of the arguments does not satisfy the bounds of the corresponding type parameter, an exception is thrown.

fun KClassifier.createType(
    arguments: List<KTypeProjection> = emptyList(), 
    nullable: Boolean = false, 
    annotations: List<Annotation> = emptyList()
