Turns out for this case it is possible to get the generic information. Singleshot posted an answer which does just that. His should be the accepted answer. Re-qualifying mine.

In general though, there are many cases where you are unable to get type information you might expect to be there. Java uses a technique called type erasure which removes the types from the generic at compile time. This prevents you from getting information about their actual binding at runtime in many scenarios.
