```
public ConstructorKey()
```
- Method Detail
  - intf
```
public abstract Class<?> intf()
```
    Access the interface this key indexes.
    
    Returns:
    
    class of the interface
  - type
```
public abstract Class<?> type(int i)
```
    Access the type of class at the given parameter index.
    
    Parameters:
    
    i - index of the parameter
    
    Returns:
    
    class of the parameter at index
  - n
```
public abstract int n()
```
    Access the number of parameters in the constructor.
    
    Returns:
    
    number of parameters
  - equals
```
public boolean equals(Object o)
```
    Overrides:
    
    equals in class Object
  - isUniform
```
public boolean isUniform()
```
    Indicates whether this key has multiple parameters and they are of uniform type. If there are less then two types this method will return false. new Object[]{ Atom, Bond, Atom } // false new Object[]{ Atom, Atom, Atom } // true
    
    Returns:
    
    whether the key is uniform
  - hashCode
```
public int hashCode()
```
    Overrides:
    
    hashCode in class Object
  - compareTo
```
public int compareTo(DynamicFactory.ConstructorKey o)
```
    Orders constructor keys by the number of parameters and then this name.
    
    Specified by:
    
    compareTo in interface Comparable<DynamicFactory.ConstructorKey>
    
    Parameters:
    
    o - another constructor key
    
    Returns:
    
    whether the other key is greater than, less than or equal to this key
  - isAssignable
```
public boolean isAssignable(DynamicFactory.ConstructorKey candidate)
```
    Checks whether this key is assignable to the candidate.
    
    Parameters:
    
    candidate - another constructor key
    
    Returns:
    
    whether the provided candidate is assignable
  - toString
```
public String toString()
```
    Overrides:
    
    toString in class Object
