Passing a delegate as a type parameter and using it throws error CS0314
If you look at https://github.com/fholm/IronJS/blob/master/Src/IronJS/Runtime.fs you'll see:
and [<AllowNullLiteral>] HostFunction<'a when 'a :> Delegate> =
inherit FO
val mutable Delegate : 'a
new (env:Env, delegateFunction, metaData) =
{
inherit FO(env, metaData, env.Maps.Function)
Delegate = delegateFunction
}
In other words, you cannot use C# or VB to write your function because it requires using System.Delegate
as a type constraint. I recommend either writing your function in F# or using reflection, like this:
public static FunctionObject Create<T>(CSharp.Context c, T func)
{
// return new IronJS.HostFunction<T>(c.Environment, func, null);
return (FunctionObject) Activator.CreateInstance(
typeof(IronJS.Api.HostFunction<>).MakeGenericType(T),
c.Environment, func, null);
}
