Hello all, Could type parameters be omitted when they could be inferred in struct literals?
Here's a scenario that doesn't work today (https://go2goplay.golang.org/p/Jt5OGfLePuu) package main import ( "fmt" ) type BinaryTree(type T) struct { Value T Left, Right *BinaryTree(T) } func main() { n := int(42) tree := BinaryTree{ Value: n, Left: {Value: n - 1}, Right: {Value: n + 1}, } fmt.Println(tree) } Instead we must be explicit at every struct literal instantiation which quickly becomes quite cluttered (https://go2goplay.golang.org/p/vi6GM4AxyV_r): package main import ( "fmt" ) type BinaryTree(type T) struct { Value T Left, Right *BinaryTree(T) } func main() { n := int(42) tree := BinaryTree(int) { Value: n, Left: &BinaryTree(int){Value: n - 1}, Right: &BinaryTree(int){Value: n + 1}, } fmt.Println(tree) } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
