I have an interface:

interface A<V, E extends Base<V>>

Then I have a concrete implementation:

class C<V, E extends Base<V>> implements A<V, E>

for C, I have a constructor:

C(Class<? extends E> eClass)

Normally, we could just pass in EImpl.class, but in this call, the eClass would be something like Base<String>.

so:

new C<String, Base<String>> c = new C<>(???);

Is that possible? How would you pass in the class type for a generic since it just gets erased at runtime.

If I pass in Base.class, that would of course work, but then I need to type cast it since its a raw type and its unchecked which is ugly.
