Declaration

public final static boolean instanceOf(final Class<?> classVerifiable, final Class<?> classAssignable) 

Method Source Code

     * The instanceof command is used to determine if a Java class is of a
     * given type. The classVerifiable argument specifies an class handle.
     * The classAssignable specifies an interface or class. If the type
     * argument is a class name, instanceof will return true if the
     * classVerifiable is an instance of classAssignable class. If the type
     * argument is an interface, method returns true if the classVerifiable
     * argument implements the interface. Otherwise, returns false.
     *
     * @param classVerifiable the class verifiable
     * @param classAssignable the class assignable
     * @return true, if <classVerifiable> instanceof <classAssignable>
