Operations know how to perform widening * conversions, but throw {@link IllegalArgumentException} if you attempt * a narrowing conversion. Also, when accessing primitive arrays, this * class performs object wrapping and unwrapping as necessary.
*
* Note: This class returns and accepts types as Classes, even
* primitive types; there are Class types defined that represent each
* different primitive type. They are java.lang.Boolean.TYPE,
* java.lang.Byte.TYPE,
, also available as boolean.class,
* byte.class
, etc. These are not to be confused with the
* classes java.lang.Boolean, java.lang.Byte
, etc., which are
* real classes. Note also that the shorthand Object[].class
* is a convenient way to get array Classes.
*
* Performance note: This class performs best when it does not have
* to convert primitive types. The further along the chain it has to convert,
* the worse performance will be. You're best off using the array as whatever
* type it already is, and then converting the result. You will do even
* worse if you do this and use the generic set() function.
