Type of the wrapped expression tree as found in the underlying tree.
Migrates the expression into another mirror, jumping into a different universe if necessary.
Underlying mirror of this expr.
A dummy method to mark expression splicing in reification.
A dummy method to mark expression splicing in reification.
It should only be used within a reify
call, which eliminates the splice
call and embeds
the wrapped tree into the reified surrounding expression.
If used alone splice
throws an exception when called at runtime.
If you want to use an Expr in reification of some Scala code, you need to splice it in.
For an expr of type Expr[T]
, where T
has a method foo
, the following code
reify{ expr.splice.foo }
uses splice to turn an expr of type Expr[T] into a value of type T in the context of reify
.
It is equivalent to
Select( expr.tree, newTermName("foo") )
The following example code however does not compile
reify{ expr.foo }
because expr of type Expr[T] itself does not have a method foo.
Type of the wrapped expression tree as provided during creation.
Type of the wrapped expression tree as provided during creation.
When exprs are created by the compiler, staticType
represents
a statically known type of the tree as calculated at that point by the compiler.
The Scala abstract syntax tree representing the wrapped expression.
A dummy value to denote cross-stage path-dependent type dependencies.
A dummy value to denote cross-stage path-dependent type dependencies.
For example for the following macro definition:
class X { type T } object Macros { def foo(x: X): x.T = macro Impls.foo_impl }
The corresponding macro implementation should have the following signature (note how the return type denotes path-dependency on x):
object Impls { def foo_impl(c: Context)(x: c.Expr[X]): c.Expr[x.value.T] = ... }
Test two objects for inequality.

true
if !(this == that), false otherwise.
Equivalent to x.hashCode
except for boxed numeric types and null
.
Equivalent to x.hashCode
except for boxed numeric types and null
.
For numerics, it returns a hash value which is consistent
with value equality: if two value type instances compare
as true, then ## will produce the same hash value for each
of them.
For null
returns a hashcode where null.hashCode
throws a
NullPointerException
.
a hash value consistent with ==
Test two objects for equality.
Test two objects for equality.
The expression x == that
is equivalent to if (x eq null) that eq null else x.equals(that)
.
true
if the receiver object is equivalent to the argument; false
otherwise.
Cast the receiver object to be of type T0
.
Cast the receiver object to be of type T0
.
Note that the success of a cast at runtime is modulo Scala's erasure semantics.
Therefore the expression 1.asInstanceOf[String]
will throw a ClassCastException
at
runtime, while the expression List(1).asInstanceOf[List[String]]
will not.
In the latter example, because the type argument is erased as part of compilation it is
not possible to check whether the contents of the list are of the requested type.
the receiver object.
if the receiver object is not an instance of the erasure of type T0
.
A method that should be called from every well-designed equals method that is open to be overridden in a subclass.
Create a copy of the receiver object.
Tests whether the argument (arg0
) is a reference to the receiver object (this
).
Tests whether the argument (arg0
) is a reference to the receiver object (this
).
The eq
method implements an equivalence relation on
non-null instances of AnyRef
, and has three additional properties:
x
and y
of type AnyRef
, multiple invocations of
x.eq(y)
consistently returns true
or consistently returns false
.x
of type AnyRef
, x.eq(null)
and null.eq(x)
returns false
.null.eq(null)
returns true
. When overriding the equals
or hashCode
methods, it is important to ensure that their behavior is
consistent with reference equality. Therefore, if two objects are references to each other (o1 eq o2
), they
should be equal to each other (o1 == o2
) and they should hash to the same value (o1.hashCode == o2.hashCode
).
true
if the argument is a reference to the receiver object; false
otherwise.
The universal equality method defined in AnyRef
.
Called by the garbage collector on the receiver object when there are no more references to the object.
Called by the garbage collector on the receiver object when there are no more references to the object.
The details of when and if the finalize
method is invoked, as
well as the interaction between finalize
and non-local returns
and exceptions, are all platform dependent.
Returns string formatted according to given format

Returns string formatted according to given format

Format strings are as for String.format

A representation that corresponds to the dynamic class of the receiver object.

The hashCode method for reference types.
Test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object is T0
.
Test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object is T0
.
Note that the result of the test is modulo Scala's erasure semantics.
Therefore the expression 1.isInstanceOf[String]
will return false
, while the
expression List(1).isInstanceOf[List[String]]
will return true
.
In the latter example, because the type argument is erased as part of compilation it is
not possible to check whether the contents of the list are of the specified type.
