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;
        }
    }

    /**
     * Get the actual type arguments a child class has used to extend a generic
     * base class.
     *
     * @param baseClass the base class
     * @param childClass the child class
     * @return a list of the raw classes for the actual type arguments.
     */
    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;
    }
  }

以下是我的诀窍:

public class Main {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

        System.out.println(Main.<String> getClazz());

    }

    static <T> Class getClazz(T... param) {

        return param.getClass().getComponentType();
    }

}

如果不能更改泛型类并使用本页中已经解释的方法之一，那么简单的方法是根据运行时实例类名获取类型类。

Class getType(GenericType runtimeClassMember){
if (ClassA.class.equals(runtimeClassMember.getClass()){
  return TypeForClassA.class;
} else if (ClassB.class.equals(runtimeClassMember.getClass()){
  return TypeForClassB.class;
} 

//throw an expectation or do whatever you want for the cases not described in the if section.
}

泛型在运行时不会具体化。这意味着信息在运行时不存在。

在向Java中添加泛型的同时保持向后兼容性是一项壮举(您可以看到关于它的开创性论文:让未来对过去更加安全:向Java编程语言添加泛型)。

关于这个问题有丰富的文献，有些人对目前的状态不满意，有些人说实际上这是一个诱惑，没有真正的需要。你可以阅读这两个链接，我发现它们很有趣。

你不能。如果向类中添加类型为T的成员变量(甚至不需要初始化它)，则可以使用它来恢复类型。

为了完成这里的一些答案，我必须得到MyGenericClass的paramtrizedtype，不管层次结构有多高，在递归的帮助下:

private Class<T> getGenericTypeClass() {
        return (Class<T>) (getParametrizedType(getClass())).getActualTypeArguments()[0];
}

private static ParameterizedType getParametrizedType(Class clazz){
    if(clazz.getSuperclass().equals(MyGenericClass.class)){ // check that we are at the top of the hierarchy
        return (ParameterizedType) clazz.getGenericSuperclass();
    } else {
        return getParametrizedType(clazz.getSuperclass());
    }
}
