Just out of curiosity, why is this a thing ?

infix fun <T> Any.go(block: (T) -> Unit) {

    }

    fun main() {
        // Valid
        "".go<String> {

        }
        // Invalid
        "" go <String> {

        }
    }

If you want to use infix call you can write:

"" go { x: String ->

}

Indeed, but what about this?

infix fun <T> Any.go(block: T.() -> Unit) {

}

What about it? What exactly are you trying to do?

[Shawn]

You can maybe make this a bit more convenient to write with a definition like this

infix fun <T : Any> T.go(block: (T) -> Unit { }

"" go {

}

I'm not trying to do anything particular I was just wondering how to specify the generic type on an infix function
