If 95% of generics are collections the current draft is overkill.
What about a simplified version with only one generic type (like we do
with interface{}), without constraint as long as it can compile ?
func add(x, y GenericType) GenericType {
return x + y
}
add(1,2) // add can compile : func add(x, y int) is generated
add("abc", "def") // can compile : func add(x, y string) is generated
add(1, "abc") // two differents type : error
GenericType will be like interface{} but instead of casting it'll
generate on the fly, at compile time the function with the type of each
functions call.
I believe it's too easy and i miss something already discussed...
