What rules are used for type inference when using Generics

Does anyone know where I can find a discussion on how type inference works when using Generics in Java.

This is originally specified in Section 15.12.2.7 of the Java Language Specification, as a result of the Java Specification Requests #14.

You may also find various discussions on the subject, such as Generics - type inference from context or Type Argument Inference at the Generics FAQ, etc.

I recommend Angelika Langer's site for more information on Java generics. She does have a discussion on type inference.
