How do I... basetypes? about genny HOT 6 CLOSED

What about having T as int and use []T in your code when you need slices?

Hey. I'm having good success with genny but now I have a spazzy-issues.

Code:

func pop(arr _T) BASETYPE { l := len(_arr)-1; val := (_arr)[l]; *arr = (_arr)[:l]; return val }
Question

How can I set basetype to "int" when T is []int? so the return type is the base type... ex: return "int" when my code generates []int., float when T is []float etc
I tried:
func pop(arr TSlice) T { l := len(arr)-1; val := (arr)[l]; *arr = (arr)[:l]; return val }

but after running go generate Tslice is named "intSlice" so I cannot export it, which is my next question:

I'm exporting my package so custom types have to be Uppercased, so the way I was building slices is no longer work

@matryer thats what I was doing initially, however for builtins... go does not allow you to use them as receivers in functions

ex: func (arr []int) pop () {...} is invalid, so I have to use a custom type IntSlice.

Question for you guys!
I want to release my generated .go file as a package
but I want to include the src/template so they can add types and regenerate it.
But the template should not be in the pkg (the code/varnames conflict as the T variables are not defined)

I guess you cannot change the extension of a file before using go generate. Any idea how to do this?

You can use build tags to prevent template files from being build as part of the package?

// +build ignore

yea! thanks a lot sir.

One last question: Im using two vars and getting 2x2x2x2 results instead of 2x2 (4) generated functions
the vars are BASE_TYPE (=int,float) and SLICE (=IntSlice,FloatSlice)
I dont need a type IntSlice []float, and a Floatslice []int

anyway to not get double the results?
