Abstract Value Members

  1. abstract def compile(tree: U.Tree): () ⇒ Any

    Compiles a tree using this ToolBox.

    Compiles a tree using this ToolBox.

    If the tree has unresolved type variables (represented as instances of FreeTypeSymbol symbols), then they all have to be resolved first using Tree.substituteTypes, or an error occurs.

    This spawns the compiler at the Namer phase, and pipelines the tree through that compiler. Currently compile does not accept trees that already typechecked, because typechecking isn't idempotent. For more info, take a look at https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-5464.

  2. abstract def eval(tree: U.Tree): Any

    Compiles and runs a tree using this ToolBox.

    Compiles and runs a tree using this ToolBox. Is equivalent to compile(tree)().

  3. abstract def frontEnd: FrontEnd

    Front end of the toolbox.

    Front end of the toolbox.

    Accumulates and displays warnings and errors, can drop to interactive mode (if supported). The latter can be useful to study the typechecker or to debug complex macros.

    scala.tools.reflect provides two predefined front ends that can be created using scala.tools.reflect.mkSilentFrontEnd and scala.tools.reflect.mkConsoleFrontEnd.

  4. abstract def inferImplicitValue(pt: U.Type, silent: Boolean = true, withMacrosDisabled: Boolean = false, pos: U.Position = u.NoPosition): U.Tree

    Infers an implicit value of the expected type pt in top-level context.

    Infers an implicit value of the expected type pt in top-level context. Optional pos parameter provides a position that will be associated with the implicit search.

    As mentioned in https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/scala-internals/ta-vbUT6JE8 this API won't take into account the lexical context of the callsite, because currently it's impossible to reify it.

    If silent is false, TypeError will be thrown in case of an inference error. If silent is true, the typecheck is silent and will return EmptyTree if an error occurs. Such errors don't vanish and can be inspected by turning on -Xlog-implicits. Unlike in typecheck, silent is true by default.

  5. abstract def inferImplicitView(tree: U.Tree, from: U.Type, to: U.Type, silent: Boolean = true, withMacrosDisabled: Boolean = false, pos: U.Position = u.NoPosition): U.Tree

    Infers an implicit view from the provided tree tree from the type from to the type to in the toplevel context.

    Infers an implicit view from the provided tree tree from the type from to the type to in the toplevel context. Optional pos parameter provides a position that will be associated with the implicit search.

  6. abstract val mirror: U.Mirror

    Underlying mirror of a ToolBox

  7. abstract def parse(code: String): U.Tree

    .

    ..

  8. abstract def resetAllAttrs(tree: U.Tree): U.Tree

    Recursively resets symbols and types in a given tree.

    Recursively resets symbols and types in a given tree.

    Note that this does not revert the tree to its pre-typer shape. For more info, read up https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-5464.

  9. abstract def resetLocalAttrs(tree: U.Tree): U.Tree

    Recursively resets locally defined symbols and types in a given tree.

    Recursively resets locally defined symbols and types in a given tree.

    Note that this does not revert the tree to its pre-typer shape. For more info, read up https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-5464.

  10. abstract def typecheck(tree: U.Tree, pt: U.Type = u.WildcardType, silent: Boolean = false, withImplicitViewsDisabled: Boolean = false, withMacrosDisabled: Boolean = false): U.Tree

    Typechecks a tree using this ToolBox.

    Typechecks a tree using this ToolBox. This populates symbols and types of the tree and possibly transforms it to reflect certain desugarings.

    If the tree has unresolved type variables (represented as instances of FreeTypeSymbol symbols), then they all have to be resolved first using Tree.substituteTypes, or an error occurs.

    If silent is false, TypeError will be thrown in case of a typecheck error. If silent is true, the typecheck is silent and will return EmptyTree if an error occurs. Such errors don't vanish and can be inspected by turning on -Ydebug.

    Typechecking can be steered with the following optional parameters: withImplicitViewsDisabled recursively prohibits implicit views (though, implicit vals will still be looked up and filled in), default value is false withMacrosDisabled recursively prohibits macro expansions and macro-based implicits, default value is false
