Ari Maniatis closed CAY-942.
----------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

Closing this issue since all the basic generics have been added except for 'query'. CAY-1294 has been opened for that work which is now likely to be targetted for 3.1

> I realize that this would restrict functionality to Java 5+, but I still believe it would be a good option to have for the code generator in the modeler:
> Add, as an option, generic types to Lists in generated classes. It's quite annoying to have to cast types; much of my code looks like this:
> for(Object o : someObject.getSomeManyToManyField()) {
>     TheTypeIWanted ttiw = (TheTypeIWanted) o;
>     ...
> }
> With generics, it would be:
> for(TheTypeIWanted ttiw : someObject.getSomeManyToManyField()) {
>     ...
> }
> It'd also be nice if the core libraries had generics. For example, "Object DataObjectUtils.objectForPk(Class, int)" could be changed to "T DataObjectUtils.objectForPk(Class<T>, int)" to avoid casting.
