Interface MethodBuilder

All Superinterfaces:
ClassFileBuilder<MethodElement, MethodBuilder>, Consumer<MethodElement>
public sealed interface MethodBuilder extends ClassFileBuilder<MethodElement, MethodBuilder>
A builder for methods. Builders are not created directly; they are passed to handlers by methods such as ClassBuilder.withMethod(Utf8Entry, Utf8Entry, int, Consumer) or to method transforms. The elements of a method can be specified abstractly (by passing a MethodElement to ClassFileBuilder.with(ClassFileElement) or concretely by calling the various withXxx methods.
