Title
Body
So I have a map: Map<String, Class> format = new HashMap<String, Class>(); And I would add elements to it like this: format.put("Vendor Number", Integer.class); format.put("Vendor Dispatch", Date.class); .... I have a generic method as follows: public static <T> T verifyType(String name, Class<T> type) { if (type == Integer.class) { return type.cast(new Integer(Integer.parseInt(name))); } ...... return null; } Now this piece of code works great with no compiler issues: Integer i = verifyType("100",Integer.class); But, when I try this: Integer i = verifyType("100",format.get("Vendor Number")); OR Class type = Integer.class Integer i = verifyType("100",type); Compiler shows me this warning: Type safety: Unchecked invocation verifyType(String,Class) of the generic method verifyType(String, Class) That leaves me puzzled... please help...
