我怎样才能做到这一点呢?

public class GenericClass<T>
{
    public Type getMyType()
    {
        //How do I return the type of T?
    }
}

到目前为止,我所尝试的一切总是返回Object类型,而不是使用的特定类型。


当前回答

Java泛型大多是在编译时,这意味着类型信息在运行时丢失。

class GenericCls<T>
{
    T t;
}

会被编译成什么样子

class GenericCls
{
   Object o;
}

要在运行时获得类型信息,必须将其作为ctor的参数添加。

class GenericCls<T>
{
     private Class<T> type;
     public GenericCls(Class<T> cls)
     {
        type= cls;
     }
     Class<T> getType(){return type;}
}

例子:

GenericCls<?> instance = new GenericCls<String>(String.class);
assert instance.getType() == String.class;

其他回答

我使用以下方法:

public class A<T> {

    protected Class<T> clazz;

    public A() {
        this.clazz = (Class<T>) ((ParameterizedType) getClass().getGenericSuperclass()).getActualTypeArguments()[0];
    }

    public Class<T> getClazz() {
        return clazz;
    }
}

public class B extends A<C> {
   /* ... */
    public void anything() {
       // here I may use getClazz();
    }
}

如果你使用的是弹簧:

public static Class<?>[] resolveTypeArguments(Class<?> parentClass, Class<?> subClass) {
    if (subClass.isSynthetic()) {
        return null;
    }
    return GenericTypeResolver.resolveTypeArguments(subClass, parentClass);
}

顺便说一下,对于非子类类,GenericTypeResolver仍然会得到null,就像提到的问题一样,因为此类类的泛型信息在编译后被完全擦除。

解决这个问题的唯一方法可能是:

public class GenericClass<T>
{
    private final Class<T> clazz;
    public Foo(Class<T> clazz) {
        this.clazz= clazz;
    }
    
    public Type getMyType()
    {
        return clazz;
    }
}

我不认为你可以,Java在编译时使用类型擦除,这样你的代码就可以与在泛型之前创建的应用程序和库兼容。

来自Oracle文档:

Type Erasure Generics were introduced to the Java language to provide tighter type checks at compile time and to support generic programming. To implement generics, the Java compiler applies type erasure to: Replace all type parameters in generic types with their bounds or Object if the type parameters are unbounded. The produced bytecode, therefore, contains only ordinary classes, interfaces, and methods. Insert type casts if necessary to preserve type safety. Generate bridge methods to preserve polymorphism in extended generic types. Type erasure ensures that no new classes are created for parameterized types; consequently, generics incur no runtime overhead.

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/generics/erasure.html

这是我的解决方案:

import java.lang.reflect.Type;
import java.lang.reflect.TypeVariable;

public class GenericClass<T extends String> {

  public static void main(String[] args) {
     for (TypeVariable typeParam : GenericClass.class.getTypeParameters()) {
      System.out.println(typeParam.getName());
      for (Type bound : typeParam.getBounds()) {
         System.out.println(bound);
      }
    }
  }
}

Ian Robertson在这篇文章中描述的技巧对我很有用。

简单粗暴的例子:

     *

     */
    public Class<T> returnedClass()
    {
        return (Class<T>) getTypeArguments(AbstractDAO.class, getClass()).get(0);
    }

    /**
     * Get the underlying class for a type, or null if the type is a variable
     * type.
     *
     * @param type the type
     * @return the underlying class
