```
public ProductWrapper<E> generate(ProductWrapper<E> wrapper)
```
    Description copied from interface: Generator
    
    Returns an instance of the generic type E, using the ProductWrapper instance provided as argument. The wrapper may wrap a null value as a regular generator product. If the generator is not available (any more), it returns null instead of the ProductWrapper instance.
    
    Parameters:
    
    wrapper - the wrapper
    
    Returns:
    
    the product wrapper
  - toString
