[英]In Scala, What is the difference between universe.TypeTag, TypeRef, and Type?
There are 3 different classes all bounded to a universe: TypeTag
, TypeRef
, and Type
. 有3种不同的类都绑定到Universe: TypeTag
, TypeRef
和Type
。 Why do we need all 3? 为什么我们需要全部三个? If I only have a Type
, how do I convert it to a TypeTag
or TypeRef
? 如果我只有Type
,如何将其转换为TypeTag
或TypeRef
?
Eg I have obtain a common super type through a Scala reflection API function: 例如,我已经通过Scala反射API函数获得了通用的超级类型:
val at = ...some TypeTag...
val bt = ...some TypeTag...
val tpe = ScalaReflection.universe.lub(List(at.tpe, bt.tpe))
ScalaReflection.universe.(tpe)
How do I convert it into TypeTag
or TypeRef
? 如何将其转换为TypeTag
或TypeRef
?
TypeRef
is a specific case of Type
: TypeRef
是Type
一种特殊情况:
abstract type TypeRef >: Null <: Universe.TypeRefApi with Universe.Type
You can check if a Type
is actually a TypeRef
by pattern-matching: 您可以通过模式匹配来检查Type
是否实际上是TypeRef
:
tpe match {
case TypeRef(prefix, sym, args) =>
// or alternately
case typeRef: TypeRef =>
}
TypeTag[A]
is a way to get access to Type
which 1) works for different mirrors; TypeTag[A]
是一种访问Type
的方法,其中1)适用于不同的镜像; 2) can be generated by the compiler automatically from the type parameter (note that Type
is not generic). 2)可以由编译器从type参数自动生成(请注意Type
不是通用的)。
To convert Type
to TypeTag
, from How to create a TypeTag manually? 要将Type
转换为TypeTag
,从如何手动创建TypeTag? : :
import scala.reflect.runtime.universe._
def typeToTypeTag[T](
tpe: Type,
mirror: reflect.api.Mirror[reflect.runtime.universe.type]
): TypeTag[T] = {
TypeTag(mirror, new reflect.api.TypeCreator {
def apply[U <: reflect.api.Universe with Singleton](m: reflect.api.Mirror[U]) = {
assert(m eq mirror, s"TypeTag[$tpe] defined in $mirror cannot be migrated to $m.")
tpe.asInstanceOf[U#Type]
}
})
}
