Get the Class object of class while using generics [duplicate]

This question already has an answer here:

• Get generic type of class at runtime 14 answers

I have the following generic class:

public abstract class DAO<T extends Model>{
  // Some attributes and methods here...

  public List<String> getMethods(){
    // get a list of all methods of T class
  }
}

In the getMethods, as the commentary says, I want to get a list of all methods the T class has. While not using generics, I can get that by doing the following:

Class fooClass = Foo.class;
Method[] methods = fooClass.getMethods();

I've tried using:

Class tClass = T.class;
Method[] methods = tClass.getMethods();

But it didn't work.

So to sum up, my question is: how to get the Class object of the T class while using generics?
