class - Displaying Field type with Java reflection -

i using reflection in java.

here code:

  public string getclassfields(class aclass)   {   string classfields = "";   field[] fields = aclass.getdeclaredfields();   boolean ispublic;   string separator = system.getproperty( "line.separator" );   (field f : fields)    {     ispublic = modifier.ispublic(f.getmodifiers());     if (ispublic)         classfields += "public " + f.gettype() + " " + f.getname() + separator;     else         classfields += "private " + f.gettype() + " " + f.getname() + separator;   }       return classfields; 

}

if fields in class follows:

private int diameter; private colour colour; 

the code have posted above returns following:

private int diameter private class colour colour 

how can modify code remove additional 'class' word line:

private class colour colour 

right now, you're getting default string representation, provided class#tostring():

converts object string. string representation string "class" or "interface", followed space, , qualified name of class in format returned getname. if class object represents primitive type, method returns name of primitive type. if class object represents void method returns "void".

so want use different method name of class. change

f.gettype() 

to

((class) f.gettype()).getname() // or ((class) f.gettype()).getsimplename()

side note: don't perform string concatenation in loop that. because has copy string each time, leads quadratic (o(n^2)) asymptotic runtime. use stringbuilder instead.
