I’m trying to use `erased` similar to what’s sugge...

# kodein

I’m trying to use erased similar to what’s suggested in the docs:
erased<Set<String>> will yield a TypeToken representing Set<*>.

In my case, I’m trying to do like:

bind<MyClass<*>>() with multiton { p: Obj<T> -> MyClass<T>(p) }
and
kodein.with(p).Instance(erased<MyClass<T>>())

Basically, what I’m trying to do is to create a bind for MyClass regardless the generics T it must receive. So, I’m binding it with bind<MyClass<*>>. However, it seems that erased<MyClass<T>> generated `MyClass`instead of MyClass<*> as mentioned on the docs for the case with Set.

Is there anything I can do to make this right?

I think I found a way… if I bind with uppercase Bind I can do: Bind(erased<MyClass<*>>()) which will generate the bind like: bind<MyClass> instead of bind<MyClass<*>>.

Yet, I’m not sure whether it’s a bug or not.

@salomonbrys let me know if I should create a task for this case.

@jdorleans Open a ticket, I'll give it a look. I'll close the ticket if there's nothing I can do 😉
