- ## Uses of AnnotatedType in java.lang.reflect

  Subinterfaces of AnnotatedType in java.lang.reflect
  Modifier and Type | Interface | Description
  --- | --- | ---
  `interface` | `AnnotatedArrayType` | `AnnotatedArrayType` represents the potentially annotated use of an array type, whose component type may itself represent the annotated use of a type.
  `interface` | `AnnotatedParameterizedType` | `AnnotatedParameterizedType` represents the potentially annotated use of a parameterized type, whose type arguments may themselves represent annotated uses of types.
  `interface` | `AnnotatedTypeVariable` | `AnnotatedTypeVariable` represents the potentially annotated use of a type variable, whose declaration may have bounds which themselves represent annotated uses of types.
  `interface` | `AnnotatedWildcardType` | `AnnotatedWildcardType` represents the potentially annotated use of a wildcard type argument, whose upper or lower bounds may themselves represent annotated uses of types.
