I am using a third-party library that has two types:
type Foo struct {
a bool
b bool
}
type Bar struct {
a bool
b bool
c bool
}
They have common fields (a and b), and Bar has the extra c. The third-party library doesn't implement any interface above them that I could use.
I want a setup function that creates these structs and sets some default values, but these values are the same for both types.
I tried the following code:
func SetupFooOrBar[T *Foo | *Bar](t T) {
t.a = true
t.b = false
// if type is Bar, then we set c
}
It doesn't work: t.a undefined and t.b undefined.
Is there any way to develop this as DRY as possible?
