Interface CustomArgumentType.Converted<T,N>

Type Parameters:
T - custom type
N - type with an argument native to vanilla Minecraft (from ArgumentTypes)
All Superinterfaces:
com.mojang.brigadier.arguments.ArgumentType<T>, CustomArgumentType<T,N>
Enclosing interface:
CustomArgumentType<T,N>

@Experimental public static interface CustomArgumentType.Converted<T,N> extends CustomArgumentType<T,N>
An argument type that wraps around a native-to-vanilla argument type. This argument receives special handling in that the native argument type will be sent to the client for possible client-side completions and syntax validation.

The parsed native type will be converted via convert(Object). Implement CustomArgumentType if you want to handle parsing the type manually.

      Description copied from interface: CustomArgumentType
      Parses the argument into the custom type (T). Keep in mind that this parsing will be done on the server. This means that if you throw a CommandSyntaxException during parsing, this will only show up to the user after the user has executed the command not while they are still entering it.
