- ## Method Details

  - ### getType

    ClassNode getType()
    the type of the variable

  - ### getOriginType

    ClassNode getOriginType()
    the type before wrapping primitives type of the variable

  - ### getName

    String getName()
    the name of the variable

  - ### getInitialExpression

    Expression getInitialExpression()
    expression used to initialize the variable or null of there is no initialization.

  - ### hasInitialExpression

    boolean hasInitialExpression()
    returns true if there is an initialization expression

  - ### isInStaticContext

    boolean isInStaticContext()
    returns true if this variable is used in a static context. A static context is any static initializer block, when this variable is declared as static or when this variable is used in a static method

  - ### isDynamicTyped

    boolean isDynamicTyped()

  - ### isClosureSharedVariable

    boolean isClosureSharedVariable()

  - ### setClosureSharedVariable

    void setClosureSharedVariable(boolean inClosure)

  - ### getModifiers

    int getModifiers()
