Why compiler cannot infer generic types of the inner class in Java?
When the above code snippet is compiled, it leads to Compile-Time error saying “incompatible types: cannot infer type arguments for A.InnerA<>.

How do I create a constructor for a class that is inheriting from an abstract class with generics?
My university professor shared this class with us (it’s essentially a generic parser using Gson): I created a class that inherits from it so I can read a Business from a file: Intellij automatically generated a constructor for it, but I don’t understand it. Why does the constructor has a class as a parameter, do I have to pass an
error: constructor in class cannot be applied to given types; with matrix of generic variable in Java
In a first file I declared the Matrix class with corresponding generic variable and with a constructor defined as follows: And in a second test file class with main program I declare the matrix of generic variables with String elements.

Can Functional Interfaces with generic type be stored in a static map?
I have used a static map to store a series of Functional Interfaces which associated with three classes A, B and C all inherited from a parent class. The code runs smoothly as follow: However, there is a warning “Raw use of parameterized class ‘BiConsumer'” on the usage of Biconsumer in the static map. I tried various ways to add
How to capture and propagate a wildcard type argument?
I have a couple of classes having identical methods, except with respect to certain parameter types: Now I’m trying to have a main class that stores a mixed list of these class objects and for each of these instances, passes info between its two methods: The List<ICls<?>> and Map<String, ?> statements are OK.

How to create a type specific Comparator for a flexible type array?
I am stuck in the middle of ‘generic-type-qualifier-land’ and can’t find the right combination of type qualifiers. I have a class that represents a flexible array that can have a number of different types in it. The class holds an ArrayList<Object> as the container for the elements. There are type specific accessors, like getString(i) and getInt(i) etc. I would like
