org.polkadot.types.primitive.Type

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.CharSequence, Codec

Direct Known Subclasses:

Modules.PlainType, Storage.PlainType, Storage.PlainType

public class Type
extends Text

This is a extended version of String, specifically to handle types. Here we rely fully on what string provides us, however we also adjust the types received from the runtime, i.e. we remove the T:: prefixes found in some types for consistency accross implementation.
