A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Like other bugs reported with generic types inference with anonymous classes, the compiler throws an internal NPE when trying to infer the types.

Given the following method:

public <RQ, RS> Mono<RS> createAirData(final String path, final ParameterizedTypeReference<RS> parameterizedTypeReference, final RQ request) {
        return webClient.post()
                        .uri(path)
                        .bodyValue(request)
                        .retrieve()
                        .bodyToMono(parameterizedTypeReference)
                        .timeout(timeout);
    }

The following code breaks the compiler:

StepVerifier.create(createAirData(path, new ParameterizedTypeReference<>() {}, request))
                    .expectNext(response)
                    .verifyComplete();

It can be fixed by specifying the generic type explicitly (avoiding inference) or by extracting a variable so type can be inferred:

ParameterizedTypeReference<Object> parameterizedTypeReference = new ParameterizedTypeReference<>() {};
StepVerifier.create(reactiveAirDataService.createAirData(path, parameterizedTypeReference, request))
                    .expectNext(response)
                    .verifyComplete();

------------
The exception received when the type cannot be inferred:

 An exception has occurred in the compiler (16.0.1).

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1. Create a method similar to createAirData (receiving a generic interface)
2. Call some kind of builder/pipeline that receives the output of the method, similar to the StepVerifier.create used in the description (example bellow) and finish it with a method that loses the value of T

---
StepVerifier methods:

	static <T> FirstStep<T> create(Publisher<? extends T> publisher) {
		return create(publisher, Long.MAX_VALUE);
	}

---
FirstStep methods:

    Step<T> expectNext(T t);

    //The return type Duration causes the type to be lost and seems to be the reason of the NPE
    Duration verifyComplete();


EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
It should compile with no issues
ACTUAL -
 An exception has occurred in the compiler (16.0.1).

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
Extract the method using the anonymous class to a variable so the type can be inferred. Alternatively, we can indicate the type explicitly to avoid inference at all.

FREQUENCY : always

Reproducer received from the submitter =============================== Please find attached the following snippet which I think is able to reproduce the issue. If you replace "new ParameterizedTypeReference<>() " by "new ParameterizedTypeReference<Object>()" it works.

I am still not able to reproduce the issue as the variables used are undeclared. So it is difficult to know what type they are. Requested submitter for a simple reproducible test case.

Reply from submitter received ======================== If for any reason, you aren't able to reproduce it with that, I'm getting them from Spring Boot, so you can use these dependencies instead: ��� "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-webflux:2.3.10.RELEASE" ��� "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test:2.3.10.RELEASE" ��� "io.projectreactor:reactor-test:3.3.16"

The reproducer uses 3rd party libs. I am really not aware of the libs being used to reproduce the issue. Requested the submitter to provide the list of libs required to reproduce the issue.
