[swift-evolution] Proposal: Allow explicit type parameter specification in generic function call

[Ramiro Feria Purón]

Thanks Dave!

As another example, consider it as part of this common pattern:

class A<T> {

    init() {

        // ..

    }

}


class B<T>: A<T> {

    override init() {

        // ..

    }

}


class Factory {



    class func makeA<T>() -> A<T> { return B<T>() }

    //..

}


Factory.makeA<Int>()



Kind regards,

Ramiro
