在通用方法中避免投射到无 [英] avoiding cast to Nothing in generic method

问题描述

scala> def foo[U](t: Any) = t.asInstanceOf[U]
foo: [U](t: Any)U

scala> val s: String = foo("hi")

scala> val n = foo("hi")

有没有办法写#foo，以便它返回一个Any如果'U'没有被推断或明确设置为真实类型？

Is there a way to write #foo so that it returns an Any if 'U' is not inferred or set explicitly to a "real" type?

推荐答案

没有。静态类型是 U 。如果这被推断为 Nothing ，编译器将不允许类型为任何的返回值。

No. The static type is U. If this is inferred as Nothing, the compiler won't allow a return value of type Any.

您可以改善运行时错误信息：

You can improve the runtime error message:

def foo[U: Manifest](t: Any): U = if (implicitly[Manifest[U]] == manifest[Nothing]) 
  error("type not provided") 
else t.asInstanceOf[U]

或者按照Arjan的建议。

Or follow the Arjan's suggestion.
