  E.g. when method returns void.

• PRIMITIVE

  E.g. when method returns String.

• ARRAY

  public static final Type.Kind ARRAY

  E.g. when method returns int[] or String[][].

• PARAMETERIZED_TYPE

  Returns:

  an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

• valueOf

  public static Type.Kind valueOf(java.lang.String name)
