Keywords: javax.lang.model.type.IntersectionType interface

# Interface IntersectionType

All Superinterfaces:
  `AnnotatedConstruct`, `TypeMirror`

public interface IntersectionType extends TypeMirror
Represents an intersection type.

An intersection type can be either implicitly or explicitly declared in a program. For example, the bound of the type parameter `<T extends Number & Runnable>` is an (implicit) intersection type. This is represented by an `IntersectionType` with `Number` and `Runnable` as its bounds.

Implementation Note:
  In the reference implementation an `IntersectionType` is used to model the explicit target type of a cast expression.
