scala

A marker trait indicating that values of type L can be compared to values of type R.

Companion object containing a few universally known CanEqual instances. CanEqual instances involving primitive types or the Null type are handled directly in the compiler (see Implicits.synthesizedCanEqual), so they are not included here.

A capability class that allows to throw exception E. When used with the experimental.saferExceptions feature, a throw Ex() expression will require a given of class CanThrow[Ex] to be available.

A class for implicit values that can serve as implicit conversions. The implicit resolution algorithm will act as if there existed the additional implicit definition:

def $implicitConversion[T, U](x: T)(c: Conversion[T, U]): U = c(x)

However, the presence of this definition would slow down implicit search since its outermost type matches any pair of types. Therefore, implicit search contains a special case in Implicits#discardForView which emulates the conversion in a more efficient way.

Note that this is a SAM class - function literals are automatically converted to the Conversion values.

Also note that in bootstrapped dotty, Predef.<:< should inherit from Conversion. This would cut the number of special cases in discardForView from two to one.

The Conversion class can also be used to convert explicitly, using the convert extension method.

A tuple of 0 elements.

An immutable array. An IArray[T] has the same representation as an Array[T], but it cannot be updated. Unlike regular arrays, immutable arrays are covariant.

Tuple of arbitrary non-zero arity

Marker trait for polymorphic function types.

This is the only trait that can be refined with a polymorphic method, as long as that method is called apply, e.g.: PolyFunction { def apply[T_1, ..., T_M](x_1: P_1, ..., x_N: P_N): R } This type will be erased to FunctionN.

A marker trait for objects that support structural selection via selectDynamic and applyDynamic

Implementation classes should define, or make available as extension methods, the following two method signatures:

def selectDynamic(name: String): Any def applyDynamic(name: String)(args: Any*): Any =

selectDynamic is invoked for simple selections v.m, whereas applyDynamic is invoked for selections with arguments v.m(...). If there's only one kind of selection, the method supporting the other may be omitted. The applyDynamic can also have a second parameter list of java.lang.Class arguments, i.e. it may alternatively have the signature

def applyDynamic(name: String, paramClasses: Class[_])(args: Any): Any

In this case the call will synthesize Class arguments for the erasure of all formal parameter types of the method in the structural type.

Tuple of arbitrary arity

An annotation that designates a main function
