trait Tag[T] extends AnyTag

Like scala.reflect.api.TypeTags.TypeTag, but supports higher-kinded type tags via TagK type class.

In context of DI this lets you define modules parameterized by higher-kinded type parameters. This is especially helpful for applying tagless final style

Example:

import distage.ModuleDef

class MyModule[F[_]: Monad: TagK] extends ModuleDef {
  make[MyService[F]]
  make[F[Int]].named("lucky-number").from(Monad[F].pure(7))
}

Without a TagK constraint above, this example would fail with no TypeTag available for MyService[F] error

Currently some limitations apply as to when a Tag will be correctly constructed: * Type Parameters do not yet resolve inside structural refinements, e.g. T in 

Tag[{ def x: T}]

* TagK* does not resolve for constructors with bounded parameters, e.g. S in 

class Abc[S <: String]; TagK[Abc]

(You can still have a bound in partial application: e.g. 

class Abc[S <: String, A]; TagK[Abc["hi", ?]]

Abstract Value Members

  1. abstract def closestClass: Class[_]

    Closest class found for the type or for a LUB of all intersection members in case of an intersection type.

    Closest class found for the type or for a LUB of all intersection members in case of an intersection type.

    A Scala type may not have an associated JVM class, as such this class may not be sufficient to create instances of T

    Only if tag.hasPreciseClass returns true it may be safe to reflect on closestClass
