Question

I’m working with Robolectric, and in the Robolectric class there is a static method:

public static <P, R> P shadowOf_(R instance) {
    return (P) ShadowWrangler.getInstance().shadowOf(instance);
}

I’ve come from a long time C# Generics background so I could be thinking of this incorrectly. My first instinct was to utilize this as such:

Robolectric.shadowOf_<MyShadow>(myInstance).foo(); 

However, this does not compile (plus, to me and my C# generics background, it doesnt look right).

How can I use this method?

Source of the method is located here.

I believe you need:

Robolectric.<MyShadow,X>shadowOf_(myInstance).foo(); 

where X is whatever the type of myInstance is.
