How to obtain class instance generic argument type

I have some c# code:

public static class ServiceLocator
{ 

   private static Dictionary<Type, Type> services = new Dictionary<Type, Type>();

   public static void RegisterService<T>(Type service)
   {
      services[typeof (T)] = service;
   } 

...

}

I want to write the same logic on java. How can I get type of generic T (T.getClass() not working)
like typeof (T) in c#?

    You can’t. Generics are erased after compilation. You have to pass Class<T> as argument.

    I don’t quite understand your example, though. Why would you want to map a Type (Class) to itself?
