ConcurrentModificationException = java.util.ConcurrentModificationException
This is a type alias for
java.util.ConcurrentModificationException
, which may be thrown by methods that detect an invalid modification of an object.This is a type alias for
java.util.ConcurrentModificationException

StackOverflowError = java.lang.StackOverflowError
Thrown when a stack overflow occurs because a method or function recurses too deeply.
Thrown when a stack overflow occurs because a method or function recurses too deeply.
On the JVM, this is a type alias for
java.lang.StackOverflowError
, which itself extendsjava.lang.Error
. The same rules apply to catching ajava.lang.Error
as for Java, that it indicates a serious problem that a reasonable application should not try and catch.

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

Creates a new array of the specified type and given length.
Creates a new array of the specified type and given length.
Note that if
elemClass
is a subclass of scala.AnyVal then the returned value is an Array of the corresponding java primitive type. For example, the following codescala.compat.Platform.createArray(classOf[Int], 4)
returns an array of the java primitive typeint
.For a scala.AnyVal array, the values of the array are set to 0 for numeric value types (scala.Double, scala.Float, scala.Long, scala.Int, scala.Char, scala.Short, and scala.Byte), and
false
for scala.Boolean. Creation of an array of type scala.Unit is not possible.For subclasses of scala.AnyRef, the values of the array are set to
null
.The caller must cast the returned value to the correct type.

eq(arg0: AnyRef): Boolean
Tests whether the argument (

) is a reference to the receiver object (this
).Tests whether the argument (
that
) is a reference to the receiver object (this
).The
eq
method implements an equivalence relation on non-null instances ofAnyRef
, and has three additional properties:- It is consistent: for any non-null instances
x
andy
of typeAnyRef
, multiple invocations ofx.eq(y)
consistently returnstrue
or consistently returnsfalse
. - For any non-null instance
x
of typeAnyRef
,x.eq(null)
andnull.eq(x)
returnsfalse
. null.eq(null)
returnstrue
.
When overriding the
equals
orhashCode
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
).- returns
true
if the argument is a reference to the receiver object;false

Package structure
The scala package contains core types like
Int
,Float
,Array
orOption
which are accessible in all Scala compilation units without explicit qualification or imports.Notable packages include:
scala.collection
and its sub-packages contain Scala's collections frameworkscala.collection.immutable
- Immutable, sequential data-structures such asVector
,List
,Range
,HashMap
orHashSet
scala.collection.mutable
- Mutable, sequential data-structures such asArrayBuffer
,StringBuilder
,HashMap
orHashSet
scala.collection.concurrent
- Mutable, concurrent data-structures such asTrieMap
scala.collection.parallel.immutable
- Immutable, parallel data-structures such asParVector
,ParRange
,ParHashMap
orParHashSet
scala.collection.parallel.mutable
- Mutable, parallel data-structures such asParArray
,ParHashMap
,ParTrieMap
orParHashSet
scala.concurrent
- Primitives for concurrent programming such asFutures
andPromises
scala.io
- Input and output operationsscala.math
- Basic math functions and additional numeric types likeBigInt
andBigDecimal
scala.sys
- Interaction with other processes and the operating systemscala.util.matching
- Regular expressionsOther packages exist. See the complete list on the right.
Additional parts of the standard library are shipped as separate libraries. These include:
scala.reflect
- Scala's reflection API (scala-reflect.jar)scala.xml
- XML parsing, manipulation, and serialization (scala-xml.jar)scala.swing
- A convenient wrapper around Java's GUI framework called Swing (scala-swing.jar)scala.util.parsing
- Parser combinators (scala-parser-combinators.jar)Automatic imports
Identifiers in the scala package and the
scala.Predef
object are always in scope by default.Some of these identifiers are type aliases provided as shortcuts to commonly used classes. For example,
List
is an alias forscala.collection.immutable.List
.Other aliases refer to classes provided by the underlying platform. For example, on the JVM,
String
is an alias forjava.lang.String
.
