How to find generics when running a java process
I'm generating code out of code. To do this I need to scan code to generate the code, this includes generics. Currently I'm using classgraph as the scanner for the code, but it does not look like it supports generics (I believe it's runtime, so generics don't exist there).
Does anyone know a way to programmatically fetch generics from a library?

Other than that, I can just say that it's meant to be an integration testing library where you run the process on a docker container, and then have a mirror instance of the API for the process that you can use like the original library, where every method call just does some networking and such to communicate with the containerized process using reflection and that API. Most definitely a stupid idea, but at least interesting, which is why I'm pursuing it at the moment
So to clarify, every method in the mirror API will kind of look like this, all autogenerated with the same method names as the API it is based out of:
MirrorHandler does network processing
