The aliases of operations on definitions whose return type is non-primitive are called definitions aliases.

Note Note

The eight primitive return types supported by the Java programming language are:

  • byte

  • short

  • int

  • long

  • float

  • double

  • boolean

  • char

End of the note.

Example Example

Address custAddress = null is a definition alias.

The Address object has operations like getCity(), getCountry().

Definition aliases of custAddress are:

  • custAddress.getCity()

  • custAddress.getCountry()

End of the example.

You can create a definition alias in the Project Resources and at the ruleset level.
