getConcreteClassTypeArguments

public java.util.List<java.lang.reflect.Type> getConcreteClassTypeArguments()

For generic types, returns a list of actual Class arguments. For example, for Set<String>, returns String. Non-concrete (like ?) or missing type arguments like are defaulted to Object.

For array, returns List with Class.getComponentType()
