Hey Richard,<br><br>We don&#39;t return a JavaType because there&#39;s no way to tell if the type we are returning is actually something we can get the sources of. We could perhaps implement a strategy where if a JavaType is produced for a type such as &quot;java.lang.ArrayList&quot;, then we would need to throw &quot;MissingSourceException&quot; if we attempt to perform any operations on that class. Thoughts?<br>
<br>All good finds! This API was, as I hinted at before - quickly moved to a state where it could be used, but never &quot;polished&quot;) These are certainly things we can clean up. Just put in JIRAs and we&#39;ll make sure the kinks get worked out :)<br>

Hi guys,<br>
<br>
A couple questions regarding org.jboss.forge.parser.java.Method.getReturnType:<br>
<br>
1. How come it returns a String, instead of a JavaType?<br>
2. The String is just the name, not the fully qualified name. How can I get the fully qualified name?<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
Richard.<br>
