@ -560,23 +560,44 @@ During the course of the \unify{} algorithm more and more types emerge.
As soon as enough type information is given \unify{} can conduct a capture conversion if needed.
The constraints where this is possible are marked as capture constraints.
Type information flows top down.
Argument types of a method invocation impact its return type.
But knowing the return type does not imply distinct argument types.
We know from the argument types of \texttt{receive} -which are given- that the \texttt{copy} method
needs to return a type of the form $\exptype{Pair}{\type{X}, \type{Y}}$
where \type{X} and \type{Y} can be any types as long as \type{Y} is a subtype of \type{X}.
Without wildcards this would leave us with a clue what the type should look like.
\section{Discussion Pair Example}
We can make it work with a special rule in the \unify{}.
But this will only help in this specific example and not generally solve the issue.
A type $\exptype{Pair}{\rwildcard{X}, \rwildcard{X}}$ has atleast two immediate supertypes:
$\wctype{\rwildcard{X}}{Pair}{\rwildcard{X}, \rwildcard{X}}$ and
$\wctype{\rwildcard{X}, \rwildcard{Y}}{Pair}{\rwildcard{X}, \rwildcard{Y}}$.
Imagine a type $\exptype{Triple}{\rwildcard{X},\rwildcard{X},\rwildcard{X}}$ already has
% TODO: how many supertypes are there?
X.Triple<X,X,X> <: X,Y.Triple<X,Y,X> <:
X,Y,Z.Triple<X,Y,Z>
%TODO: simplify this example. lSpeial <. List<x> and List<x> <. id is sufficient
% The unify algorithm needs to resolve l <c List<x?> to l <. X.List<X>, X.List<X> <c List<x?>
\begin{verbatim}
<X> Pair<X,X> make(List<X> l){ ... }
<X> boolean compare(Pair<X,X> p) { ... }
% this is not complete:
l <c Pair<x?, y?>
l <. X,Y.Pair<X,Y>, X,Y.Pair<X,Y> <. Pair<x?, y?>
List<?> l;
Pair<?,?> p;
compare(make(l)); // Valid
compare(p); // Error
\end{verbatim}
Our type inference algorithm is not able to solve this example.
When we convert this to \TamedFJ{} and generate constraints we end up with:
%TODO: Finish this example! does it work?
\begin{lstlisting}[style=tamedfj]
let x = l in let m = make(x) in compare(m)
\end{lstlisting}
\begin{constraints}
\end{constraints}
%TODO
\begin{lstlisting}[style=letfj]
let x : (*@$\wctype{\rwildcard{X}}{List}{\rwildcard{X}}$@*) = l in let m = make(x) in compare(m)
\end{lstlisting}
% if a x =. y emerge:
X =. Y, which will delete both wildcards
\end{itemize}
