  - getAnnotatedBounds
```
AnnotatedType[] getAnnotatedBounds()
```
    Returns the potentially annotated bounds of this type variable. If no bound is explicitly declared, the bound is unannotated Object.
    
    Returns:
    
    the potentially annotated bounds of this type variable

    TypeVariable.getBounds()
  - getAnnotatedOwnerType
```
AnnotatedType getAnnotatedOwnerType()
```
    Returns the potentially annotated type that this type is a member of, if this type represents a nested type. For example, if this type is @TA O<T>.I<S>, return a representation of @TA O<T>.
    Returns null for an AnnotatedType that is an instance of AnnotatedTypeVariable.
    
    Specified by:
