GenericResolutionException class final
Exception thrown when generic type resolution fails during dynamic analysis or reflection-based processing.
This typically occurs when:
- A generic type parameter cannot be inferred or resolved
- The type arguments are incompatible with the expected type
- Reflection or metadata inspection encounters an ambiguous or unsupported generic
Extends RuntimeResolverException, preserving support for:
message— a human-readable description of the failurecause— optional underlying exceptionstackTrace— optional diagnostic stack trace
Usage Example
throw GenericResolutionException(
"Failed to resolve type parameter T for Repository<User>",
cause: TypeError(),
);
Design Notes
- Provides clear diagnostics for generic type resolution failures.
- Supports exception chaining for deeper analysis of root causes.
- Typically used during reflection, repository building, or dynamic wiring.
Example Behavior
| Context | Result |
|---|---|
Generic parameter T missing |
❌ Throws GenericResolutionException |
| Type argument incompatible | ❌ Throws with detailed message |
| Ambiguous or unknown generic | ❌ Throws |
