public interface CtTypeAccess<A> extends CtExpression<Void>
This code element represents a type reference usable as an expression. It is used in particular for static accesses, Java 8 method references, instanceof binary expressions and ".class". 
     // access to static field
     java.io.PrintStream ps = System.out;
 
     // call to static method
     Class.forName("Foo")
 
     // method reference
     java.util.function.Supplier p =
       Object::new;
 
     // instanceof test
     boolean x = new Object() instanceof Integer // Integer is represented as an access to type Integer
 
     // fake field "class"
     Class x = Number.class
