Types

trait Types extends AnyRef

EXPERIMENTAL

A trait that defines types and operations on them.

Type instances represent information about the type of a corresponding symbol. This includes its members (methods, fields, type parameters, nested classes, traits, etc.) either declared directly or inherited, its base types, its erasure and so on. Types also provide operations to test for type conformance or equivalence or for widening.

To instantiate a type, most of the time, the scala.reflect.api.TypeTags#typeOf method can be used. It takes a type argument and produces a Type instance which represents that argument. For example:

scala> typeOf[List[Int]]
res0: reflect.runtime.universe.Type = scala.List[Int]

In this example, a scala.reflect.api.Types#TypeRef is returned, which corresponds to the type constructor List applied to the type argument Int.

Note: Method typeOf does not work for types with type parameters, such as typeOf[List[A]] where A is a type parameter. In this case, use scala.reflect.api.TypeTags#weakTypeOf instead.

For other ways to instantiate types, see the corresponding section of the Reflection Guide.

Common Operations on Types

Types are typically used for type conformance tests or are queried for declarations of members or inner types.

Types can be queried for members and declarations by using the members and declarations methods (along with their singular counterparts member and declaration), which provide the list of definitions associated with that type. For example, to look up the map method of List, one can do:

scala> typeOf[List[_]].member("map": TermName)
res1: reflect.runtime.universe.Symbol = method map

  8. final def asInstanceOf[T0]: T0

    Cast the receiver object to be of type T0.

    Cast the receiver object to be of type T0.

    Note that the success of a cast at runtime is modulo Scala's erasure semantics. Therefore the expression 1.asInstanceOf[String] will throw a ClassCastException at runtime, while the expression List(1).asInstanceOf[List[String]] will not. In the latter example, because the type argument is erased as part of compilation it is not possible to check whether the contents of the list are of the requested type.

  14. final def eq(arg0: AnyRef): Boolean

    Tests whether the argument (arg0) is a reference to the receiver object (this).

    Tests whether the argument (arg0) is a reference to the receiver object (this).

    The eq method implements an equivalence relation on non-null instances of AnyRef, and has three additional properties:

    • It is consistent: for any non-null instances x and y of type AnyRef, multiple invocations of x.eq(y) consistently returns true or consistently returns false.
    • For any non-null instance x of type AnyRef, x.eq(null) and null.eq(x) returns false.
    • null.eq(null) returns true.

    When overriding the equals or hashCode methods, it is important to ensure that their behavior is consistent with reference equality. Therefore, if two objects are references to each other (o1 eq o2), they should be equal to each other (o1 == o2) and they should hash to the same value (o1.hashCode == o2.hashCode).

    returns

    true if the argument is a reference to the receiver object; false otherwise.

Therefore the expression 1.isInstanceOf[String] will return false, while the expression List(1).isInstanceOf[List[String]] will return true. In the latter example, because the type argument is erased as part of compilation it is not possible to check whether the contents of the list are of the specified type.

    Implicit information
    This member is added by an implicit conversion from Types to StringAdd performed by method any2stringadd in scala.Predef.
    Shadowing
    This implicitly inherited member is ambiguous. One or more implicitly inherited members have similar signatures, so calling this member may produce an ambiguous implicit conversion compiler error.
    To access this member you can use a type ascription:
    (types: StringAdd).self
    Definition Classes
    StringAdd
  2. val self: Any

    Implicit information
    This member is added by an implicit conversion from Types to StringFormat performed by method any2stringfmt in scala.Predef.
    Shadowing
    This implicitly inherited member is ambiguous. One or more implicitly inherited members have similar signatures, so calling this member may produce an ambiguous implicit conversion compiler error.
    To access this member you can use a type ascription:
    (types: StringFormat).self
    Definition Classes
    StringFormat

Deprecated Value Members

  1. def x: Types

    Implicit information
    This member is added by an implicit conversion from Types to ArrowAssoc[Types] performed by method any2ArrowAssoc in scala.Predef.

    This implicitly inherited member is ambiguous. One or more implicitly inherited members have similar signatures, so calling this member may produce an ambiguous implicit conversion compiler error.

Types

API

The methods available for each reflection entity, without the implementation. Since the reflection entities are later overridden by runtime reflection and macros, their API counterparts guarantee a minimum set of methods that are implemented.

Extractors

Extractors provide the machinery necessary to allow pattern matching and construction of reflection entities that is similar to case classes, although the entities are only abstract types that are later overridden.

Tags

Implicit values that provide ClassTags for the reflection classes. These are abstract in the interface but are later filled in to provide ClassTags for the either the runtime reflection or macros entities, depending on the use.
