I have a method like this:
public Object load(Object type) {
...
}
Note that the parameter is an Object-type.
I have several classes that are using the loadConfiguration method. Inside the method I need to know the class, so the value for MyObject.class is needed. Well, because I have an Object , this is not possible and type.getClass() also throws an exception, because is just gives me java.lang.Class and not the real one. One possibility would be to use instanceof functionality but I would like to keep it as general as possible.
Any ideas for this? I also had look to this topic .
Thank You!
I'm not sure in your example exactly what is going on. I believe in your example the parameter type
is a Class object, so you can just cast it.
public Object load(Object type) {
Class<?> clazz = (Class<?>)type;
...
}
Calling code would then look like
blah.load(MyObject.class);
If in fact you need to know the class of the type the method is being invoked on, you can simply call
Class<?> clazz = this.getClass()
