static java.lang.Class<?>	classForType(java.lang.reflect.Type t) This is a surprisingly intractable problem in Java: "Type" pretty much represents all possible states of reified and unreified type information, and each kind of Type has different, mutually exclusive, and often unintended ways of uncovering its (un-reified) class.

@Nullable
public static java.lang.Class<?> classForType(java.lang.reflect.Type t)

This is a surprisingly intractable problem in Java: "Type" pretty much represents all possible states of reified and unreified type information, and each kind of Type has different, mutually exclusive, and often unintended ways of uncovering its (un-reified) class.

Generally it's much safer to use this for the type from a *field* than a blind type from an argument.

Parameters:

t - the type to check

Returns:

the class of t
