Title
Body
I've always thought the following should work. I get an object which I know is a Class<X> where X extends some class Xyz . In order to make it type-safe I wanted to use Class.asSubclass like in the following method: private Class<? extends Xyz> castToXyzClass(Object o) { final Class<?> resultClass = (Class<?>) o; final Class<? extends Xyz> result = Xyz.class.asSubclass(resultClass); return result; } However, in Eclipse it doesn't work, the only solution I see is an unchecked cast. I'd bet the above code must work, I've used something like this already... no idea what's wrong here.
