What did you do?

This may likely not be supported yet, but I'm trying to declare a generic in one package and use it from another:

registry.go2:

package util

import (
	"fmt"
)

type Registry[Elem any] map[string]func(map[string]interface{}) (Elem, error)
...

and

config.go2:

package meter

import (
	"github.com/andig/evcc/api"
	"github.com/andig/evcc/util"
)

var registry util.Registry[api.Meter] = make(map[string]func(map[string]interface{}) (api.Meter, error))

What did you expect to see?

Transpile the consuming side without error.

What did you see instead?

After registry.go2 is transpiled, config.go2 transpiling fails:

❯ go2 tool go2go translate meter/config.go2
meter/config.go2:11:27: expected ';', found '[' (and 1 more errors)

Having everything in a single playground file works fine: https://go2goplay.golang.org/p/OAJT9nCTv0u

Btw: the square brackets syntax seems much easier to read than the repeated rounded brackets used in the examples before. Dropping type seems logical and further reduces cognitive load. Playground2 gofmt still adds the type back in, hope this can be dropped in the future.

This is confusion as to whether your config.go2 file is using square brackets or parentheses. We'll get this fixed at some point. In the meantime use go tool go2go -brackets.

Feeling really stupid, but still:

❯ go2 tool go2go -brackets translate meter/config.go2           
meter/config.go2:11:27: expected ';', found '[' (and 1 more errors)

Are you on the tip of the dev.go2go branch? If you are, show me a complete test case. With the test case I created based on the fragments you showed above, adding -brackets fixed the problem.

❯ go2 version

The two files in question are in https://github.com/andig/evcc/pull/307/files. Both combined into a single go playground are fine: https://go2goplay.golang.org/p/y0MoIvA-ZVd. Probably not worth spending more time, I'll wait for the experiment to mature more and hopefully make into mainline soonish.
