If you really don't care:
scala> import scala.reflect.runtime._
import scala.reflect.runtime._
scala> import universe._
import universe._
scala> class A[T<:A[T]] { def a: T = null.asInstanceOf[T] }
defined class A
scala> def f(x: A[_]) = currentMirror reflect[A[_]] x
f: (x: A[_])reflect.runtime.universe.InstanceMirror
scala> f(new A)
res0: reflect.runtime.universe.InstanceMirror = instance mirror for A@5b369cb9
scala> typeOf[A[_]].member(TermName("a")).asMethod
res1: reflect.runtime.universe.MethodSymbol = method a
scala> res0 reflectMethod res1
res2: reflect.runtime.universe.MethodMirror = method mirror for A.a: T (bound to A@5b369cb9)
scala> res2()
res3: Any = null
I want a black distressed tee that has on the front X[_]
and on the back, I dont care what type you think I am.
Maybe more strongly worded.
