## Interface IntersectionType

- All Superinterfaces:
    AnnotatedConstruct, TypeMirror

      public interface IntersectionType
      extends TypeMirror

  Represents an intersection type.

  An intersection type can be either implicitly or explicitly declared in a program. For example, the bound of the type parameter `<T extends Number & Runnable>` is an (implicit) intersection type. As of `RELEASE_8`, this is represented by an `IntersectionType` with `Number` and `Runnable` as its bounds.

  Implementation Note:
    Also as of `RELEASE_8`, in the reference implementation an `IntersectionType` is used to model the explicit target type of a cast expression.
  Since:
    1.8
