java 通用方法,如何在Java中创建通用方法？

I have the following method:

public static void update(String name) {

CustomTextType obj = findByName(name);

...

}

I'd like to make it a general use method so that I don't need to write new code for every new custom type. I could do this, which would require instantiating the object before calling update():

public static void update(String name, Object obj) {

obj = findByName(name);

...

}

Out of curiosity, I'm wondering if there is a way to do this using Java Generics:

// note: this is an example and does not work

public static void update(String name, type) {

type var = findByName(name);

...

}

Is there a way to accomplish this in Java?

解决方案

public static void update(String name, T type) {

//logic dealing with `T`.

}

Note that T will be reifiable in this case. Either Foo(which itself includes Class that can be obtained from instanceOfT.getClass()) or T itself has been passed in.
