Test two objects for inequality.

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.

adds all elements produced by a TraversableOnce to this growable collection.

Adds a single element to the builder.

adds two or more elements to this growable collection.

The expression x == that is equivalent to if (x eq null) that eq null else x.equals(that).

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.

Returns true if this combiner has a thread-safe += and is meant to be shared across several threads constructing the collection.

By default, this method returns false.

Clears the contents of this builder. After execution of this method the builder will contain no elements.

Create a copy of the receiver object.

The default implementation of the clone method is platform dependent.

Combines the contents of the receiver builder and the other builder, producing a new builder containing both their elements.

This method may combine the two builders by copying them into a larger collection, by producing a lazy view that gets evaluated once result is invoked, or use a merge operation specific to the data structure in question.

Note that both the receiver builder and other builder become invalidated after the invocation of this method, and should be cleared (see clear) if they are to be used again.

Also, combining two combiners c1 and c2 for which c1 eq c2 is true, that is, they are the same objects in memory:

c1.combine(c2)

always does nothing and returns c1.

Tests whether the argument (that) 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:

• It is consistent: for any non-null instances x and y of type AnyRef, multiple invocations of x.eq(y) consistently returns true or consistently returns false.
• For any non-null instance 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).

The equality method for reference types. Default implementation delegates to eq.

See also equals in scala.Any.

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 string. Format strings are as for String.format (@see java.lang.String.format).

Returns the runtime class representation of the object.

The hashCode method for reference types. See hashCode in scala.Any.

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.

Creates a new builder by applying a transformation function to the results of this builder.

Equivalent to !(this eq that).

Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on the receiver object's monitor.

Wakes up all threads that are waiting on the receiver object's monitor.

Produces a collection from the added elements. This is a terminal operation: the builder's contents are undefined after this operation, and no further methods should be called.

Constructs the result and sets the appropriate tasksupport object to the resulting collection if this is applicable.

Gives a hint that one expects the result of this builder to have the same size as the given collection, plus some delta. This will provide a hint only if the collection is known to have a cheap size method. Currently this is assumed to be the case if and only if the collection is of type IndexedSeqLike. Some builder classes will optimize their representation based on the hint. However, builder implementations are still required to work correctly even if the hint is wrong, i.e. a different number of elements is added.

Gives a hint that one expects the result of this builder to have the same size as the given collection, plus some delta. This will provide a hint only if the collection is known to have a cheap size method, which is determined by calling sizeHint.

Some builder classes will optimize their representation based on the hint. However, builder implementations are still required to work correctly even if the hint is wrong, i.e. a different number of elements is added.

Gives a hint how many elements are expected to be added when the next result is called. Some builder classes will optimize their representation based on the hint. However, builder implementations are still required to work correctly even if the hint is wrong, i.e. a different number of elements is added.

Gives a hint how many elements are expected to be added when the next result is called, together with an upper bound given by the size of some other collection. Some builder classes will optimize their representation based on the hint. However, builder implementations are still required to work correctly even if the hint is wrong, i.e. a different number of elements is added.

Creates a String representation of this object. The default representation is platform dependent. On the java platform it is the concatenation of the class name, "@", and the object's hashcode in hexadecimal.
