override def computeMembersNamed(name: Name)(using Context): PreDenotation

Looks in both the package object and the package for members. The precise algorithm is as follows:

Looks in both the package object and the package for members. The precise algorithm is as follows:

If this is the scala package look in the package first, and if nothing is found there, look in the package object second. Otherwise, look in the both the package object and the package and form a union of the results.

The reason for the special treatment of the scala package is that if we complete it too early, we freeze its superclass Any, so that no members can be entered in it. As a consequence, there should be no entry in the scala package object that hides a class or object in the scala package of the same name, because the behavior would then be unintuitive for such members.

Form a denotation by conjoining with denotation that.

NoDenotations are dropped. MultiDenotations are handled by merging parts with same signatures. SingleDenotations with equal signatures are joined by following this sequence of steps:

  1. If exactly one the denotations has an inaccessible symbol, pick the other one.
  2. Otherwise, if one of the infos overrides the other one, and the associated symbol does not score strictly lower than the other one, pick the associated denotation.
  3. Otherwise, if the two infos can be combined with infoMeet, pick that as result info, and pick the symbol that scores higher as result symbol, or pick sym1 as a tie breaker. The picked info and symbol are combined in a JointDenotation.
  4. Otherwise, if one of the two symbols scores strongly higher than the other one, pick the associated denotation.
  5. Otherwise return a multi-denotation consisting of both denotations.

Symbol scoring is determined according to the following ranking where earlier criteria trump later ones. Cases marked with (*) give a strong score advantage, the others a weak one.

  1. The symbol exists, and the other one does not. (*)
  2. The symbol is not a bridge, but the other one is. (*)
  3. The symbol is concrete, and the other one is deferred
  4. The symbol appears before the other in the linearization of pre
  5. The symbol's visibility is strictly greater than the other one's.
  6. The symbol is a method, but the other one is not.

The symbols defined in this class or object. Careful! This does not force the type, so is compilation order dependent. This method should be used only in the following circumstances:

  1. When accessing type parameters or type parameter accessors (both are entered before completion).
  2. When obtaining the current scope in order to enter, rename or delete something there.
  3. When playing it safe in order not to raise CylicReferences, e.g. for printing things or taking more efficient shortcuts (e.g. the stillValid test).
