How do I remove the warning from a EasyMock.anyObject(List.class) call

Question

Compiler can't stop complaining with this call :

EasyMock.anyObject(List.class) 

I tried to specify list's type

EasyMock.anyObject(List<MyType>.class)

but it doesn't seems to be an option (anyway, it is stupid since java will erase the type during the compilation)

Is there a clean way (@SuppressWarning is not a clean way IMO) to remove this warning?

Thank you

Solution 1

It's not possible. I'll call it a generic limitation. Sadly it's not always possible to remove a warning for some perfectly normal usage (like using the class of a generic class).

However, with EasyMock you can do the following:

EasyMock.<List<MyType>> anyObject()

which will do the same thing but without warning. The anyObject you used exist because it's a bit more readable and allows static imports.

Solution 2

Only as suggestion :

interface A extends List<MyType> {};
EasyMock.anyObject(A.class)
