What is the easiest way to test (using reflection), whether given method (i.e. java.lang.Method instance) has a return type, which can be safely casted to List<String>?
Consider this snippet:
public static class StringList ...

along with this can anybody help me to understand BOUNDED TYPE PARAMETER LIST
List<E extends Number>;

I saw sometimes a type object inside <> beside of another object type declaration.
For instance:

new CopyOnWriteArrayList<EventListener>();
Could you give ... |

There is a way to cheat around this. Both methods are the same because after the generics are removed, both are the same: void someMethod(List). If you give them different return types however, it will work: void someMethod(List l); int someMethod(List l); After the generics are removed (this process is called erasure), the two are different. Of course it seems strange ... |
Originally posted by Jothi Shankar Kumar Sankararaj: I really did not get your explanation. Can you be a bit clear? You have a List. You then cast it to an Object, which is just perfectly legal. After all, every non-primitive IS-A Object in Java. However, then you are casting it to List. The compiler gives you a warning. It doesn't give ... |
