Declaring a constructor on the same interface as the instance members doesn’t really make much sense — if you’re going to pass in a type dynamically to use in a constructor, it’s the static side of the class that would be restricted. What you would want to do is probably something like this:
interface Colorable {
colorize(c: string): void;
}
interface Countable {
count: number;
}
interface ColorCountable extends Colorable, Countable {
}
interface ColorCountableCreator {
new(info: {color: string; count: number}): ColorCountable;
}
class ColorCounted implements ColorCountable {
count: number;
colorize(s: string) { }
constructor(info: {color: string; count: number}) {
// ...
}
}
function makeThings(c: ColorCountableCreator) {
var results: ColorCountable[];
for(var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
results.push(new c({color: 'blue', count: i}));
}
return results;
}
var items = makeThings(ColorCounted);
console.log(items[0].count);
