Why won't this work? LegalMenu is an enum.

[J6ey]

Neither does generic work 😕

[Roukanken]

because (despite how it might look), Array<Any> is NOT super type of Array<LegalMenu> , despite Any being super type of LegalMenu - Array<T> is invariant in T - no out or in modifier on it, so every diff Array<T> is a different type and there is no relations between them

[Roukanken]

the generics should definitely be accepted tho, how are ya defining them?

[J6ey]

Actually I got this to work with Array<*>

[J6ey]

LegalMenu is just a simple enum class in Java

[J6ey]

I assume * is equivalent to java's Object

[Roukanken]

* is more like equivalent to Java's ? in generics

[Roukanken]

anyways, smth like this works:

fun<T> f(a: Array<T>): Unit = TODO()

enum class Test {
    A, B, C
}

f(Test.values())

so dunno how you defined the generics...
