I'm trying to write a method that returns an instance of a generic type. So, early in my method, I try to declare a local variable of that type, intending to assign it and return it later. But the Xcore editor marks it as an error and tells me, "Couldn't resolve reference to JvmType 'T'." I at first thought this was an Xbase issue, but it seems not since I can do this in Xtend. Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?

Code, stripped of all meaning:

Here's the xcore op:

op <T, C> T somethingGeneric(C hiC)
	{
	   var T myT
	   myT
	}


And the xtend def:

def <T, C> T somethingGeneric(C hiC)
   {
      var T myT
      myT
   }


The Xtend editor has no problem with the def as written, but the Xcore editor can't figure out what 'T' represents.

Erick,

Which version of Xcore are you using? If it's the latest SR2 release,
or the Mars stream, please open a Bugzilla.

Hi Ed, thanks. I'm on Luna SR1a (SR2 isn't out yet), working in Xcore SDK 1.2.2.v20150202-0452. I got it from the Xtext all-in-one update site. Is that the one intended for Luna SR2?
