Scope of implicit functions in objects with the same name as the class in scala

Question

The question is simple: in Scala, are the implicit function definitions of object A in the scope of class A? Or do I have to explicitly use import A._ to get access to the implicit functions?

No, you have to import them (same as non-implicit members of object A ). But of course, any implicit conversions from or to A are always searched in the companion object, if there are none in scope.
