FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.5.0_01"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_01-b08)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_01-b08, mixed mode, sharing)

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The new ParameterizedType interface defines the getRawType method to return the type representing the raw type of the parameterized type. The type of a raw type must be a Class object, so the method should have a return type of Class<?> not Type.

  To use this method you have cast the return value to Class.


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
Always cast the return value to Class
