Re: [jboss-dev] generic collection item type

This is not just Collection specific. Doing this (TypeInfo[] types = typeInfo.getActualTypeArguments();) on JBossEnterpriseBeansMetaData would return you those 3 types: (pseudo code ;-) types[] = {EnterpriseBeanMetaData, JBossEnterpriseBeanMetaData, EnterpriseBeansMetaData}; Rgds, Ales 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. Alexey
