I am trying to create a function dynamically that can return different types based on it's input in F#. These types of functions are like proxies, to illustrate what I am trying to do, here follows an example that is not working correctly:
open FSharp.Reflection
open System
let functionThatReturnsAsync (irrelevantArgs: obj list) (returnType: Type) =
if returnType.GUID = typeof<string>.GUID
then async { return box "some text" }
elif returnType.GUID = typeof<int>.GUID
then async { return box 42 }
elif returnType.GUID = typeof<bool>.GUID
then async { return box true }
else async { return box null }
// this works fine
let func = FSharpValue.MakeFunction(typeof<string -> Async<int>>, fun x -> box (functionThatReturnsAsync [x] typeof<int>))
// unboxing to that type works as well
let fn = unbox<string -> Async<int>> func
async {
// HERE THE ERROR
let! output = fn "hello"
printfn "%d" output
}
|> Async.StartImmediate
When I invoke fn
it seem to be trying to cast FSharpFunc<string, FSharpAsync<obj>>
to FSharpFunc<string, FSharpAsync<int>>
but the cast is invalid. Even without the async
CE, just invoking fn
to get the async value fails:
System.InvalidCastException: Specified cast is not valid.

Stopped due to error
Is this even possible and to make the example work? I don't mind even fiddling with IL emits to get this working but I am not sure how. If something is unclear about the question, let me know and I will update.
