# ManifestFactory

#### object ManifestFactory

`ManifestFactory` defines factory methods for manifests. It is intended for use by the compiler and should not be used in client code.

Unlike `Manifest`, this factory isn't annotated with a deprecation warning. This is done to prevent avalanches of deprecation warnings in the code that calls methods with manifests. Why so complicated? Read up the comments for `ClassManifestFactory`.

19. #### def abstractType[T](prefix: Manifest[_], name: String, upperBound: Class[_], args: Manifest[_]*): Manifest[T]

    Manifest for the abstract type `prefix # name'.` upperBound`is not strictly necessary as it could be obtained by reflection. It was added so that erasure can be calculated without reflection.`

20. #### def arrayType[T](arg: Manifest[_]): Manifest[Array[T]]

21. #### final def asInstanceOf[T0]: T0

    Definition Classes
      Any

22. #### def classType[T](prefix: Manifest[_], clazz: Class[_], args: Manifest[_]*): Manifest[T]

    Manifest for the class type `clazz[args]`, where `clazz` is a class with non-package prefix type `prefix` and type arguments `args`.

23. #### def classType[T](clazz: Class[T], arg1: Manifest[_], args: Manifest[_]*): Manifest[T]

    Manifest for the class type `clazz`, where `clazz` is a top-level or static class and args are its type arguments.

24. #### def classType[T](clazz: Class[_]): Manifest[T]

    Manifest for the class type `clazz[args]`, where `clazz` is a top-level or static class.

    Manifest for the class type `clazz[args]`, where `clazz` is a top-level or static class.

    Note

      This no-prefix, no-arguments case is separate because we it's called from ScalaRunTime.boxArray itself. If we pass varargs as arrays into this, we get an infinitely recursive call to boxArray. (Besides, having a separate case is more efficient)
