Re: [jboss-dev] generic collection item type

This approach assumes that the component type can be determined with TypeInfo[] types = typeInfo.getActualTypeArguments(); if (types != null) elementType = types[0]; This won't work for this class https://svn.jboss.org/repos/common/jbossxb-builder/trunk/src/test/java/or... for which its super class should be checked for type arguments and the component type is the second argument. I guess I'll need to specify the component type with an annotation. But it would be nice to have something like Class.getComponentType() to work for generic collections too.
