Get an IType's type signature? [message #1734716]

The method org.eclipse.jdt.core.IType.getSuperclassTypeSignature() can be used to retrieve the type signature of an IType's superclass. However, I cannot find an easy way to retrieve the type signature of the IType itself.

I have tried using org.eclipse.jdt.core.Signature.createTypeSignature(String, boolean) by passing the result of org.eclipse.jdt.core.IType.getFullyQualifiedParameterizedName() and org.eclipse.jdt.core.IType.isResolved(), however, that doesn't work when the type has bounded type parameters. In this case, I am receiving an exception.
