💻 Code

type TypeCaseA<A> = { data: A };
type TypeCaseB<B = string> = { data?: B; code: string; };
type TypeCaseAB<A, B = string> = TypeCaseA<A> | TypeCaseB<B>;

class Service {
    getB<B = string>(code: string, data?: B): TypeCaseB<B> {
        const result: TypeCaseB<B> = { data, code };
        return result;
    }

    getA<A>(data: A): TypeCaseA<A> {
        return { data };
    }

    func1(): TypeCaseAB<{ id: number }> {
        /* The following line is blamed with:
          Type 'TypeCaseB<string | { id: number; }>' is not assignable to type 'TypeCaseAB<{ id: number; }, string>'.
            Type 'TypeCaseB<string | { id: number; }>' is not assignable to type 'TypeCaseB<string>'.
              Type 'string | { id: number; }' is not assignable to type 'string'.
                Type '{ id: number; }' is not assignable to type 'string'.
         */
        return this.getB('1231');
    }

    func2(): TypeCaseAB<{ id: number }> {
        const retval = this.getB('1231');
        return retval;
    }

    func3(): TypeCaseAB<{ id: number }, string> {
        return this.getB('1231', '456');
    }
}

🙁 Actual behavior

func1 is tested with the following error:

          Type 'TypeCaseB<string | { id: number; }>' is not assignable to type 'TypeCaseAB<{ id: number; }, string>'.
            Type 'TypeCaseB<string | { id: number; }>' is not assignable to type 'TypeCaseB<string>'.
              Type 'string | { id: number; }' is not assignable to type 'string'.
                Type '{ id: number; }' is not assignable to type 'string'.

There should be no difference from func2 which is tested correct.

🙂 Expected behavior

No error reported.

リンクされた TypeScript Playground で、TypeCaseA、TypeCaseB、TypeCaseAB、および Service.func1/func2/func3 の例を使用して診断を再現する。func1 におけるジェネリックな戻り値型の処理を、受け入れられる func2 および func3 のケースと比較する。func1 がエラーを生成せず、期待される戻り値型 TypeCaseAB を保持すれば完了とする。
