Mojo trait

Defaultable

The Defaultable trait describes a type with a default constructor.

Implementing the Defaultable trait requires the type to define an __init__ method with no arguments:

struct Foo(Defaultable):
    var s: String

    def __init__(out self):
        self.s = "default"

You can now construct a generic Defaultable type:

def default_init[T: Defaultable]() -> T:
    return T()

var foo = default_init[Foo]()
print(foo.s)

default

__init__(out self: _Self)
