Some Examples of Generics in Java 1.5

By: Richard Wiener

Abstract

The forthcoming releases of Java JDK v1.5 and C# v2.0 support generic classes (classes with generic type parameters) and generic methods. Furthermore, each also supports constrained generic types. Generic types in Java and C# introduce more expressiveness at the source code level and move type checking from run-time to compile-time when inserting objects into generic collections.
