A Java method call may be parameterized like in the following code:

class Test
{
    <T> void test()
    {
    }

    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        new Test().<Object>test();
        //         ^^^^^^^^
    }
}

I found out this is possible from the Eclipse Java Formatter settings dialog and wondered if there are any cases where this is useful or required.
