Resolve type of PsiMethodCallExpression

Hello Christian,

I'm trying to resolve the type returned by a PsiMethodCallExpression.
The getType() method returns null. For example, if I have the
following expression

new JFrame().getContentPane()

I would expect getType() to return Container as
JFrame.getContentPane() returns container. Is there any way to resolve
this type?

Please try calling resolveMethod() and then getContainingClass() on the return
value.

Hello Dmitry,

thank you for your answer, but unfortunately, the resolveMethod() method returns null.

But I noticed that this unexpected behaviour shows only when running a test within a PsiTestCase. When running the plugin in the IDEA sandbox, all goes well.

Do you see any chance to make this also run in my test case? Is there a different environment set?

Thank you & regards,
Christian
