Java Type Erasure Problem

Question

I\'ve made an example to demonstrate my problem:

Metrical.java

public interface Metrical
{
    double distance(T other);
}

Answer 1

I've written an article about type erasure which can be of your interest. It gives the common widely known solution and also a tricky way to circumvent the problem. I don't know if it will be relevant for you. Anyway, it contains some techniques which may be useful under certain circumstances.

I hope it helps.
