com.fasterxml.classmate.GenericType<T>
- All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable
,Type
This class is used to pass full generics type information, and
avoid problems with type erasure (that basically removes most
usable type references from runtime Class objects).
It is based on ideas from
http://gafter.blogspot.com/2006/12/super-type-tokens.html,
Usage is by sub-classing: here is one way to instantiate reference
to generic type List<Integer>
:
GenericType type = new GenericType<List<Integer>>() { };which can be passed to methods that accept
GenericReference
