[Soot-list] Creating a class from scratch with diamond operator

[Umar Farooq]

Hi Eric,

Thanks for the reply, I think bytecode includes such information. When I
use "javap" it shows the type parameter information, I have added details
on Github(https://github.com/Sable/soot/issues/1225#issuecomment-548586119).


Bests,
Umar
