Any of you generics experts out there know if there is any way to get the generic type from a generic class... like, say you have:

    Class type = new ArrayList<String>().getClass();

Is there any way to determine that this is an ArrayList containing String objects? I can't seem to figure out how to get this information out of the Class instance. I can figure out what the type variable name was, er like T, but that is well, completely useless IMO.

Does anyone know if its possible and how to do it?
