Spring getBean with type validation

I'm using the method ApplicationContext.getBean(String name, Class requiredType). The bean is of type util:set. My code looks like:

Set<String> mySet = context.getBean("myBean", Set.class);

I want to know is how to do something like this to avoid the type casting warning:

Set<String> mySet = context.getBean("myBean", Set<String>.class);

I'm not sure if it's possible to define the type of a class in this way. Am I dreaming or is there a way to do this?

Thanks.
