/**
 * Represents a generic type {@code T}. Java doesn't yet provide a way to represent generic types,
 * so this class does. Forces clients to create a subclass of this class which enables retrieval the
 * type information even at runtime.
 *
 * <p>For example, to create a type literal for {@code List<String>}, you can create an empty
 * anonymous class:
 *
 * <p>{@code TypeToken<List<String>> list = new TypeToken<List<String>>() {};}
 *
 * <p>Capturing a type variable as type argument of an anonymous {@code TypeToken} subclass is not
 * allowed, for example {@code TypeToken<List<T>>}. Due to type erasure the runtime type of a type
 * variable is not available to Gson and therefore it cannot provide the functionality one might
 * expect. This would give a false sense of type-safety at compile time and could lead to an
 * unexpected {@code ClassCastException} at runtime.
 *
 * <p>If the type arguments of the parameterized type are only available at runtime, for example
 * when you want to create a {@code List<E>} based on a {@code Class<E>} representing the element
 * type, the method {@link #getParameterized(Type, Type...)} can be used.
