Services and generics

[Taha Hafeez]

Hi

I have a generic service GenericDao<E> and all Dao's extend from it.. Now i
want to get a service based on generic type.
As generics are not present at runtime so I think this is very unlikely. So
this is what I have done

I created another service GenericDaoFinder as

public interface GenericDaoFinder {
   <E> GenericDaoFinder(Class<E> type);
}

Now in Module I contribute services to it as

public static void contributeGenericDaoFinder(MappedConfiguration<Class<?>,
GenericDao<?>> configuration,
   UserDao userDao, SomethingDao somethingDao){
   configuration.add(User.class, userDao);
   configuration.add(Something.class, somethingDao);
}

Is there a better way ??
