Method Details

of

public static <T extends IdentifiedCollection<?>>
EngineCollection of(Class<T> collClass)

Generics-defeating constructor for a new EngineCollection. Without this, the compiler complains that a specific IdentifiedCollection is not OK, even though in practice it's fine and won't produce class cast exceptions. The fix for this is to make EngineCollection accept a type variable, but that confuses the ConstructorFeature interface (newInstance always seems to return Object), so we kludge it like this instead
