Description Adam Kiezun CLA 2004-06-30 11:11:19 EDT 
3.0
when a generic method is invoked, the actual type arguments are inferred. an API
to ask for the inferred values would be useful.
Comment 1 Philipe Mulet CLA 2004-06-30 12:49:43 EDT 
Where would you want such an API ? The DOM AST could answer the inferred 
binding (which could be connected to original method).
Comment 2 Adam Kiezun CLA 2004-06-30 12:53:11 EDT 
on invocation nodes probably.
i know there's no single invocation node but it's bug 53586 (killed now, however)

+1
Comment 4 Philipe Mulet CLA 2004-11-09 12:34:47 EST 
Please elaborate on what exactly you need, and how you would access it.
Can commit for M4 until understood.
Comment 5 Markus Keller CLA 2004-11-10 12:07:10 EST 
Hm, I have to admit that I don't really remember in what context I thought I
would need this. Thinking about it again, I found that the information is
already available via the IMethodBinding#getErasure() link (comparing the type
parameters of parameterized and generic types).

So, -1 from my part (i.e. nothing to be done here to make me happy).
But maybe Adam was thinking about something else.

Adam, do you still need something ?
Comment 7 Adam Kiezun CLA 2004-12-13 12:41:22 EST 
ok to close for now. will reopen if I need it in the future.
thanks
Comment 8 Jerome Lanneluc CLA 2004-12-14 04:36:46 EST 
Thanks. Closing then.
