    Definition Classes

24. #### abstract def symbol: Universe.Symbol

    Symbol of the tree.

    Symbol of the tree.

    For most trees symbol is `null`. In `SymTree`s, it is overridden and implemented with a var, initialized to `NoSymbol`.

    Trees which are not `SymTree`s but which carry symbols do so by overriding `def symbol` to forward it elsewhere. Examples:

    - `Super(qual, _)` has `qual`'s symbol,
    - `Apply(fun, args)` has `fun`'s symbol,
    - `TypeApply(fun, args)` has `fun`'s symbol,
    - `AppliedTypeTree(tpt, args)` has `tpt`'s symbol,
    - `TypeTree(tpe)` has `tpe`'s `typeSymbol`, if `tpe != null`.
    Definition Classes
      TreeApi

25. #### abstract def tpe: Universe.Type

    Type of the tree.

    Type of the tree.

    Upon creation most trees have their `tpe` set to `null`. Types are typically assigned to trees during typechecking. Some node factory methods set `tpe` immediately after creation.

    When the typechecker encounters a tree with a non-null tpe, it will assume it to be correct and not check it again. This means one has to be careful not to erase the `tpe` field of subtrees.

### Concrete Value Members

1. #### final def !=(arg0: AnyRef): Boolean

   Definition Classes
     AnyRef

2. #### final def !=(arg0: Any): Boolean

   Test two objects for inequality.

   Test two objects for inequality.

   returns

     `true` if !(this == that), false otherwise.

   Definition Classes
     Any

3. #### final def ##(): Int

   Equivalent to `x.hashCode` except for boxed numeric types and `null`.

   Equivalent to `x.hashCode` except for boxed numeric types and `null`. For numerics, it returns a hash value which is consistent with value equality: if two value type instances compare as true, then ## will produce the same hash value for each of them. For `null` returns a hashcode where `null.hashCode` throws a `NullPointerException`.

   returns

     a hash value consistent with ==

4. #### final def ==(arg0: AnyRef): Boolean

   Definition Classes
     AnyRef

5. #### final def ==(arg0: Any): Boolean

   Test two objects for equality.

   Test two objects for equality. The expression `x == that` is equivalent to `if (x eq null) that eq null else x.equals(that)`.

   returns

     `true` if the receiver object is equivalent to the argument; `false` otherwise.

   Definition Classes
     Any

6. #### 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.

   returns

     the receiver object.

   Definition Classes
     Any
   Exceptions thrown
     ClassCastException

     if the receiver object is not an instance of the erasure of type `T0`.

7. #### def clone(): AnyRef

   Create a copy of the receiver object.

   Create a copy of the receiver object.

   The default implementation of the `clone` method is platform dependent.

   returns

     a copy of the receiver object.

8. #### 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.

   Definition Classes
     AnyRef

9. #### def equals(arg0: Any): Boolean

   The equality method for reference types.

   The equality method for reference types. Default implementation delegates to `eq`.

   See also `equals` in scala.Any.

   returns

     `true` if the receiver object is equivalent to the argument; `false` otherwise.

10. #### def finalize(): Unit

    Called by the garbage collector on the receiver object when there are no more references to the object.

    Called by the garbage collector on the receiver object when there are no more references to the object.

    The details of when and if the `finalize` method is invoked, as well as the interaction between `finalize` and non-local returns and exceptions, are all platform dependent.

    returns

12. #### def hashCode(): Int

    returns

    Definition Classes
      AnyRef → Any

13. #### final def isInstanceOf[T0]: Boolean

    Test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object is `T0`.

    Test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object is `T0`.

    Note that the result of the test is modulo Scala's erasure semantics. 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.

    returns

      `true` if the receiver object is an instance of erasure of type `T0`; `false` otherwise.

    Definition Classes
      Any

14. #### final def ne(arg0: AnyRef): Boolean
