Why can't the enumClass field be declared of Class<?> type?
Other than that, looks fine.

My first attempt at generifying this class used Class<?> as you suggest.
The problem occurs in the call to the static method Enum.valueOf which
has a declaration of
public static <T extends Enum<T>> T valueOf(Class<T> enumType,
String name)
The problem here is the recursive "T extends Enum<T>", following the
recursive F-bound of the java.lang.Enum type itself. Using a wildcard
for Class<?> doesn't work with this method signature; something like
Class<? extends Enum> doesn't work either because the more specific
recursive binding is not captured, so I reluctantly fell back to using a
raw type.
Thanks,
