Resolving generic type information with TypeTools

问题

In the implementation of fromMap below I would like to get the runtime type of the generic type T using TypeTools but I am stuck with a NullPointerException in TypeResolver.resolveRawArguments(MapperImpl.class, getClass());.

How can I achieve this?

Mapper.java:

import java.util.Map;

public interface Mapper<T extends Object, S extends Map<String, Object>> {
    public S toMap(T obj);
    public T fromMap(S map);
}

MapperImpl.java

import com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;
import java.util.Map;
import net.jodah.typetools.TypeResolver;

public class MapperImpl<T extends Object, S extends Map<String, Object>> 
    implements Mapper<T, S> {        

    public S toMap(T obj) {
        ObjectMapper objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();
        Map<String, Object> map = objectMapper.convertValue(obj, Map.class);
        return (S) map;
    }

    public T fromMap(S map) {
        ObjectMapper objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();

        Class<?>[] ts = TypeResolver.resolveRawArguments(MapperImpl.class, getClass());
        Class<T> classT =  (Class<T>) ts[0];

        T obj = objectMapper.convertValue(map, classT);

        return obj;
    }

回答1:

TypeTools, or any generic type resolution in Java, always required that the type arguments be captured in a type definition. What you're attempting to do will work fine so long as MapperImpl is subclassed so that the value of T and S are captured in a type definition. Ex:

public class FooMapper extends MapperImpl<Foo, ArrayList<String, Object>> {}
