The type of the value extracted by the ValueExtractor. If not set, the type will be automatically inferred from the type argument of the parameterized type.

Used to define value extractors for non-generic wrapper types e.g. OptionalInt.

May not be used when ExtractedValue is defined on the type parameter of a generic container type. A ValueExtractorDefinitionException will be thrown in this case.

Returns:

the type of the value extracted by the value extractor

Default:

void.class
