Unity: GetComponent <BaseClass <T>> - are there any workarounds for this?

Question

If the object has a component with a base class BaseClass<T>, the call GetComponent<BaseClass<T>>()will not return this component. The general argument seems to discard it, since BaseClasswithout using generics it will correctly return the derived class as a component when called GetComponent<BaseClass>().

Does anyone know a solid workaround for this? Using a common argument in this class is somewhat important, so I would prefer not to rewrite the structure of the program class just for that.

Here is an example sketch of the classes in question.

//the base class that I'd like to be able to fetch the subclasses of using GetComponent
public abstract class BaseUIClass<T> : MonoBehaviour where T :BaseEntity {}

//EntityType1&2 are derived from BaseEntity
public class DerivedUIClass1 : BaseUIClass<EntityType1> {}
public class DerivedUIClass2 : BaseUIClass<EntityType2> {}

BaseUIClass has this method:

public virtual void Setup(T entity) {}

Which should be called shortly after adding the component to GO.

EDIT:

, , , ( , )

if(uiClassObj is typeof(DerivedUIClass1) go.GetComponent<BaseUIClass<EntityType1>>();

else if(uiClassObj is typeof(DerivedUIClass2) go.GetComponent<BaseUIClass<EntityType2>>();
//etc

, BaseUIClass<BaseEntity>, + , , DerivedUIClass1<EntityType1> DerivedUIClass2<EntityType2>, ?

I.E., :

public class MyGenericClass<T> : MonoBehaviour {}

, T :

public class MySpecifiedClass : MyGenericClass<[specificType]> {}

BaseClass

using UnityEngine;

public interface ISetup {
    void CallSetup();
}

public class BaseClass<T> : MonoBehaviour, ISetup {
    public T myEntity;

    public void CallSetup() {
        Setup(myEntity);
    }

    private void Setup(T entity) {
        Debug.Log(entity);
        //Your setup code
    }
}

public class BaseClassInt : BaseClass<int> {
    private void Awake() {
        myEntity = 25;
    }
}
public class BaseClassFloat : BaseClass<float> {
    private void Awake() {
        myEntity = 10.6f;
    }
}

, Setup()

var componentsWithSetup = GetComponents<ISetup>();
foreach (var component in componentsWithSetup) {
    component.CallSetup();
}
