In Java, you can retrieve data types using the following method:

  1. The getClass() method can be used to access an object’s type, returning a Class object.
Object obj = new String("Hello");
Class<?> type = obj.getClass();
System.out.println("数据类型为：" + type.getName());
  1. The instanceof keyword can be used to check if an object belongs to a certain class or interface. It returns a Boolean value.
Object obj = new String("Hello");
if (obj instanceof String) {
    System.out.println("数据类型为：String");
}
  1. Reflection mechanism allows for accessing information about a class, such as its name, fields, and methods. This information can be obtained through methods in the Class class.
Class<?> type = String.class;
System.out.println("数据类型为：" + type.getName());
  1. By using the getType() method, you can retrieve the data type through the Type interface in Java.
Type type = new String("Hello").getClass().getGenericSuperclass();
System.out.println("数据类型为：" + type.getTypeName());

These methods can assist us in obtaining information about data types in Java programs.
