Typescript instantiate generic object
<p>I have this problem, and search for hours and can't find the right solution for it.
I'm trying to create a generic function that revives an type and an object and convert the object to that specific type. but I'm having troubles to instantiate the generic type. I would like to know if there are something like in c# Activator.CreateInstance</p>

<pre><code>handleResult&lt;T&gt;(response: Response):T {
    let jsonResp = response.json();
    let obj = jsonResp as Object;
    let resp: T = Object.CreateInstance(T); //        
    doTheMambo(resp, obj);
    return resp;
}
</code></pre>
