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。

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 abstract class AbstractDAO<T extends EntityInterface, U extends QueryCriteria, V>
 {
    /**
     * Method returns class implementing EntityInterface which was used in class
     * extending AbstractDAO
     *
     * @return Class<T extends EntityInterface>
     */
    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
     */
    public static Class<?> getClass(Type type)
    {
        if (type instanceof Class) {
            return (Class) type;
        } else if (type instanceof ParameterizedType) {
            return getClass(((ParameterizedType) type).getRawType());
        } else if (type instanceof GenericArrayType) {
            Type componentType = ((GenericArrayType) type).getGenericComponentType();
            Class<?> componentClass = getClass(componentType);
            if (componentClass != null) {
                return Array.newInstance(componentClass, 0).getClass();
            } else {
                return null;
            }
        } else {
            return null;
        }
    }

    /**

     */
    public static <T> List<Class<?>> getTypeArguments(
            Class<T> baseClass, Class<? extends T> childClass)
    {
        Map<Type, Type> resolvedTypes = new HashMap<Type, Type>();
        Type type = childClass;
        // start walking up the inheritance hierarchy until we hit baseClass
        while (!getClass(type).equals(baseClass)) {
            if (type instanceof Class) {
                // there is no useful information for us in raw types, so just keep going.
                type = ((Class) type).getGenericSuperclass();
            } else {
                ParameterizedType parameterizedType = (ParameterizedType) type;
                Class<?> rawType = (Class) parameterizedType.getRawType();

                Type[] actualTypeArguments = parameterizedType.getActualTypeArguments();
                TypeVariable<?>[] typeParameters = rawType.getTypeParameters();
                for (int i = 0; i < actualTypeArguments.length; i++) {
                    resolvedTypes.put(typeParameters[i], actualTypeArguments[i]);
                }

                if (!rawType.equals(baseClass)) {
                    type = rawType.getGenericSuperclass();
                }
            }
        }

        // finally, for each actual type argument provided to baseClass, determine (if possible)
        // the raw class for that type argument.
        Type[] actualTypeArguments;
        if (type instanceof Class) {
            actualTypeArguments = ((Class) type).getTypeParameters();
        } else {
            actualTypeArguments = ((ParameterizedType) type).getActualTypeArguments();
        }
        List<Class<?>> typeArgumentsAsClasses = new ArrayList<Class<?>>();
        // resolve types by chasing down type variables.
        for (Type baseType : actualTypeArguments) {
            while (resolvedTypes.containsKey(baseType)) {
                baseType = resolvedTypes.get(baseType);
            }
            typeArgumentsAsClasses.add(getClass(baseType));
        }
        return typeArgumentsAsClasses;
    }
  }

其他回答

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;

这是受到Pablo和CoolMind的回答的启发。 我偶尔也会使用kayz1的答案中的技巧(在许多其他答案中也有表达),我相信这是一种完成OP要求的体面而可靠的方法。

我选择首先将其定义为一个接口(类似于PJWeisberg),因为我有可以从该功能中受益的现有类型,特别是异构泛型联合类型:

public interface IGenericType<T>
{
    Class<T> getGenericTypeParameterType();
}

我在一个通用匿名接口实现中的简单实现如下所示:

//Passed into the generic value generator function: toStore
//This value name is a field in the enclosing class.
//IUnionTypeValue<T> is a generic interface that extends IGenericType<T>
value = new IUnionTypeValue<T>() {
    ...
    private T storedValue = toStore;
    ...
    
    @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
    @Override
    public Class<T> getGenericTypeParameterType()
    {
        return (Class<T>) storedValue.getClass();
    }
}

我想这也可以通过用类定义对象作为源来实现,这只是一个单独的用例。 我认为关键在于,正如许多其他答案所述,以某种方式,您需要在运行时获得类型信息,以便在运行时可用;对象本身保持其类型,但是擦除(也如其他人所说,使用适当的引用)会导致任何封闭/容器类型丢失该类型信息。

如果你使用泛型类型存储变量,你可以很容易地解决这个问题,添加getClassType方法,如下所示:

public class Constant<T> {
  private T value;

  @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
  public Class<T> getClassType () {
    return ((Class<T>) value.getClass());
  }
}

我稍后使用提供的类对象来检查它是否是给定类的实例,如下所示:

Constant<?> constant = ...;
if (constant.getClassType().equals(Integer.class)) {
    Constant<Integer> integerConstant = (Constant<Integer>)constant;
    Integer value = integerConstant.getValue();
    // ...
}
public abstract class AbstractDao<T>
{
    private final Class<T> persistentClass;

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

这是我的解决方案。例子可以解释。唯一的要求是子类必须设置泛型类型,而不是对象。
