So where is the famous difference. I don't care if I get a ClassCastException
on this line, or the cast in the ServiceManager.
More interestingly though, what about;
A a = sm.<A>lookup();
Can the ServiceManager do the equivalent of
Class c = T.class;
So that Merlin could lookup a proper type without argument in the lookup?
That would be nice! (Although it may be years away before we can do it.)
