# Scopes

#### trait Scopes extends AnyRef

EXPERIMENTAL

This trait provides support for scopes in the reflection API.

A scope object generally maps names to symbols available in a corresponding lexical scope. Scopes can be nested. The base type exposed to the reflection API, however, only exposes a minimal interface, representing a scope as an iterable of symbols.

For rare occasions when it is necessary to create a scope manually, e.g., to populate members of scala.reflect.api.Types#RefinedType, there is the `newScopeWith` function.

Additional functionality is exposed in member scopes that are returned by `members` and `decls` defined in scala.reflect.api.Types#TypeApi. Such scopes support the `sorted` method, which sorts members in declaration order.

### 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.
