how to register an instance with generic param

[dungnv2602]

  locator.registerFactory<TmdbBloc<T>>(
    () => TmdbBloc<T>(
      locator<TmdbRepo>(),
    ),
  );

This won't work.

What Error do you get?

[dungnv2602]

The name 'T' isn't a type so it can't be used as a type argument.
Try correcting the name to an existing type, or defining a type named 'T'.dart(non_type_as_type_argument)

My TmdbBloc is a generic class

[escamoteur]

can you show me the class this here is from?

  locator.registerFactory<TmdbBloc<T>>(
    () => TmdbBloc<T>(
      locator<TmdbRepo>(),
    ),
  );

[dungnv2602]

class TmdbPagedBloc<T> extends Bloc<PagedBlocEvent<T>, PagedBlocState<T>> {
  TmdbPagedBloc(TmdbRepo repo) : _repo = repo;

  final TmdbRepo _repo;
  PagedBlocModel<T> _model;
  PagedResult<T> _pagedResult;

  @override
  PagedBlocState<T> get initialState => PagedBlocStateIdle<T>();

  @override
  Stream<PagedBlocState<T>> mapEventToState(
    PagedBlocEvent<T> event,
  ) async* {
    yield* event.map(
      load: load,
      loadMore: loadMore,
      reload: reload,
      reset: reset,
    );
  }
}

Here you go

I don't see the registerFactory anywhere there?

[dungnv2602]

Of course locator.registerFactory is from a class named setup_locator or something which defines final locator = GetIt.instance;. It's too obvious, I don't think I need to show that.

[escamoteur]

I just want to know where the parameter T comes from. That's why I wouldd like to see the class where the registerFactory is

[dungnv2602]

I don't understand what you mean, T is a generic type, that's it. I just wanna know whether get_it support registering generic type or not?

[escamoteur]

I'm pretty sure it's not possibe because generics get resolved at compile time while get_it works with runtime types
