equals(Object obj)
There is no special definition of equality for bindings; equality is
simply object identity.

Note that additional kinds might be added in the future, so clients should not assume this list is exhaustive and should program defensively, e.g. by having a reasonable default in a switch statement.

Note that deprecated is not included among the modifiers.
Use isDeprecated
to find out whether a binding is deprecated.

IJavaElement getJavaElement()
null
if this binding has no corresponding
Java element.
For array types, this method returns the Java element that corresponds
to the array's element type. For raw and parameterized types, this method
returns the Java element of the erasure. For annotations, this method
returns the Java element of the annotation (i.e. an IAnnotation
).
Here are the cases where a null
should be expected:

null
if noneString getKey()
Within a connected cluster of bindings (for example, all bindings reachable from a given AST), each binding will have a distinct keys. The keys are generated in a manner that is predictable and as stable as possible. This last property makes these keys useful for comparing bindings between disconnected clusters of bindings (for example, the bindings between the "before" and "after" ASTs of the same compilation unit).
The exact details of how the keys are generated is unspecified. However, it is a function of the following information:
Note that the key for member value pair bindings is
not yet implemented. This returns null
for this kind of bindings.
Recovered bindings have a unique key.
