A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

I have a class:
```val c = Array&lt;Int&gt;::class```
I want to get the parameterized type of c (i.e. `Int`). Is this possible on the JVM?

```Array&lt;Int&gt;::class.java.componentType```

That seems to only work for arrays. Is it possible with, for example, a `Map&lt;String, Int&gt;`?

It's not possible. There is <https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/generics/erasure.html|type erasure> in JVM.

I hoped with a reified generic it would be possible. `typeOf&lt;&gt;()` gets me close, but maybe not close enough.

It is impossible from the aspect of runtime (JVM). `reified` can only be used on inline function so it has nothing to do with the runtime.

This gets me this output...
```class class kotlin.collections.Map has parameters [class kotlin.reflect.jvm.internal.KTypeParameterImpl]```
