    Affects Versions: 1.0.0.Beta1
            Reporter: Dan Allen
             Fix For: 1.0.0.Beta2


When dealing at the level of a Type, it would be helpful to have a method that would automatically convert the Type to a primitive wrapper if the original Type represents a primitive. This functionality is provided by the Primitives class in Guava.

Type type = Primitives.wrap(ip.getType());

At this point, we know that "type" does not represent a primitive.
