/**
 * Represents a generic message entity type {@code T}.
 *
 * Supports in-line instantiation of objects that represent generic types with
 * actual type parameters. An object that represents any parameterized type may
 * be obtained by sub-classing {@code GenericType}. Alternatively, an object
 * representing a concrete parameterized type can be created using a
 * {@link #GenericType(java.lang.reflect.Type)} and manually specifying
 * the {@link #getType() actual (parameterized) type}.
 * 

 * For example:
 * 
 * 
 *  GenericType<List<String>> stringListType = new GenericType<List<String>>() {};
 * 
 * 

 * Or:
 * 
 * 
 *  public class MyGenericType extends GenericType<List<String>> { ... }
 *
 *  ...
 *
 *  MyGenericType stringListType = new MyGenericType();
 * 
 * 

 * Note that due to the Java type erasure limitations the parameterized type information
 * must be specified on a subclass, not just during the instance creation. For example,
 * the following case would throw an {@link IllegalArgumentException}:
 * 
 * 
 *  public class MyGenericType<T> extends GenericType<T> { ... }
 *
 *  ...
 *
 *  // The type is only specified on instance, not in a sub-class
 *  MyGenericType<List<String>> stringListType =
 *          new MyGenericType<List<String>>();
 * 
 *
 * @param  the generic type parameter.
