Say we have 3 classes.

public class TestA<E extends TestB> {
}

public abstract class TestB {
}

public class TestC extends TestB {
}

Now we create an instance.

TestA<TestC> testMe = new TestA();

Now within class TestA how do we tell it instance testMe is referencing TestC?
The only thing I could find is to add a method or constructor which passes in a reference to TestC.class or the class name, so there's that for last resort, but I do want to make sure if I have to pass it in separately that it matches the value of E.
