/Scala 2.13 Reflection

Trait scala.reflect.api.Names

trait Names extends AnyRef

EXPERIMENTAL

This trait defines Names in Scala Reflection, and operations on them.

Names are simple wrappers for strings. Name has two subtypes TermName and TypeName which distinguish names of terms (like objects or members) and types. A term and a type of the same name can co-exist in an object.

To search for the map method (which is a term) declared in the List class, one can do:

scala> typeOf[List[_]].member(TermName("map"))
res0: reflect.runtime.universe.Symbol = method map

To search for a type member, one can follow the same procedure, using TypeName instead.

For more information about creating and using Names, see the Reflection Guide: Annotations, Names, Scopes, and More

Type Members

abstract type Name >: Null <: NameApi

abstract class NameApi extends AnyRef

abstract type TermName >: Null <: TermNameApi with Name

trait TermNameApi extends AnyRef

Has no special methods. Is here to provides erased identity for TermName.

abstract class TermNameExtractor extends AnyRef

abstract type TypeName >: Null <: TypeNameApi with Name

trait TypeNameApi extends AnyRef

Has no special methods. Is here to provides erased identity for TypeName.

abstract class TypeNameExtractor extends AnyRef
