Looking at a library called mongojack 3.0 - https://github.com/mongojack/mongojack. This library contains a file called JacksonMongoCollection.java It has a method...
public JacksonCollectionKey<TResult> getCollectionKey() {
return new JacksonCollectionKey<>(getMongoCollection().getNamespace().getDatabaseName(), getMongoCollection().getNamespace().getCollectionName(), getValueClass());
}
This returns JacksonCollectionKey<>
This library compiles fine.
I have not seen an empty generic type definition before. How does this work?
