/Scala 2.13 Reflection

Class scala.reflect.api.Mirror

abstract class Mirror[U <: Universe with Singleton] extends AnyRef

EXPERIMENTAL

The base class for all mirrors.

See scala.reflect.api.Mirrors or Reflection Guide for a complete overview of Mirrors.

U

the type of the universe this mirror belongs to.

Abstract Value Members

abstract def EmptyPackage: U.ModuleSymbol

abstract def EmptyPackageClass: U.ClassSymbol

abstract def RootClass: U.ClassSymbol

abstract def RootPackage: U.ModuleSymbol

abstract def staticClass(fullName: String): U.ClassSymbol

The symbol corresponding to the globally accessible class with the given fully qualified name fullName.

If the name points to a type alias, it's recursively dealiased and its target is returned. If you need a symbol that corresponds to the type alias itself, load it directly from the package class:

scala> cm.staticClass("scala.List") res0: scala.reflect.runtime.universe.ClassSymbol = class List

scala> res0.fullName res1: String = scala.collection.immutable.List

scala> cm.staticPackage("scala") res2: scala.reflect.runtime.universe.ModuleSymbol = package scala

scala> res2.moduleClass.info member TypeName("List") res3: scala.reflect.runtime.universe.Symbol = type List

scala> res3.fullName res4: String = scala.List

To be consistent with Scala name resolution rules, in case of ambiguity between a package and an object, the object is never been considered.

For example for the following code:

package foo { class B }

object foo { class A class B }

staticClass("foo.B") will resolve to the symbol corresponding to the class B declared in the package foo, and staticClass("foo.A") will throw a ScalaReflectionException.

In the example above, to load a symbol that corresponds to the class B declared in the object foo, use staticModule("foo") to load the module symbol and then navigate info.members of its moduleClass.

abstract def staticModule(fullName: String): U.ModuleSymbol

The symbol corresponding to the globally accessible object with the given fully qualified name fullName.

To be consistent with Scala name resolution rules, in case of ambiguity between a package and an object, the object is never been considered.

For example for the following code:

package foo { object B }

object foo { object A object B }

staticModule("foo.B") will resolve to the symbol corresponding to the object B declared in the package foo, and staticModule("foo.A") will throw a ScalaReflectionException

In the example above, to load a symbol that corresponds to the object B declared in the object foo, use staticModule("foo") to load the module symbol and then navigate info.members of its moduleClass.
