What is this?
This library provides functions that perform type arithemtic over the type system
of Java5. For example, you can compute that List<String>
is a sub-type of
Collection<String>
but not Collection<Object>
, you can compute
the erasure of java.lang.reflect.Type
, or you can determine the array
component type T
from A[T]
