💻 Code

type Constructor<T> = {
  new (...args: never[]): T;
};

interface GenericParams<T> {
  bar: (t: T) => void;
}

type List<T extends readonly {}[]> = {
  [K in keyof T]: [Constructor<T[K]>, GenericParams<T[K]>];
};

declare function foo<T extends readonly {}[]>(params: List<[...T]>): void;

class Foo {
  test() {}
}
class Bar {}

// Inference fails
foo([
//^?
  [Foo, {bar(t) {

  }}],
  [Bar, {bar(t) {

  }}]
])

// Inference works
foo([
  [Foo, {bar(t) {
    t.test();
  }}]
])

interface NumberParams<T> {
  bar: (t: number) => void;
}

type List2<T extends readonly {}[]> = {
  [K in keyof T]: [Constructor<T[K]>, NumberParams<T[K]>];
};

declare function foo2<T extends readonly {}[]>(params: List2<[...T]>): void;

// Inference works
foo2([
// ^?
  [Foo, {bar(t) {

  }}],
  [Bar, {bar(t) {

  }}]
])

🙁 Actual behavior

In the foo example, the parameter t in the associated bar methods are inferred as type any. It seems that TypeScript should be able to infer the actual types of the parameters.

🙂 Expected behavior

t is inferred as type T in each case, i.e. t should be Foo in the Foo case, and Bar in the Bar case.

There are two additional cases provided here: one with a single element in the provided array, and one where the parameters are not generic (number). In both cases, type inference does assign the correct non-any type. It's unclear what exactly the issue is in the first case.

Additional information about the issue

It's possible this is related to #47599, though I don't have enough knowledge of the internals to say whether or not it's the same class of bug. I haven't found another issue reporting this same behaviour.

Commencez par la reproduction liée dans TypeScript Playground et comparez les appels génériques à foo avec les cas à élément unique et non générique de foo2. Suivez le comportement de l’inférence des types autour du type List mappé ; c’est terminé lorsque chaque paramètre bar est inféré comme Foo ou Bar plutôt que comme any, tandis que les autres cas restent corrects.
