    This is the documentation for the Scala standard library.

    Package structure

    The scala package contains core types like Int, Float, Array or Option which are accessible in all Scala compilation units without explicit qualification or imports.

    Notable packages include:

    Other packages exist. See the complete list on the right.

    Additional parts of the standard library are shipped as separate libraries. These include:

    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 for scala.collection.immutable.List.

    Other aliases refer to classes provided by the underlying platform. For example, on the JVM, String is an alias for java.lang.String.

    A variety of decorators that enable converting between Scala and Java collections using extension methods, asScala and asJava.

    A variety of decorators that enable converting between Scala and Java collections using extension methods, asScala and asJava.

    The extension methods return adapters for the corresponding API.

    The following conversions are supported via asScala and asJava:

    scala.collection.Iterable       <=> java.lang.Iterable
scala.collection.Iterator       <=> java.util.Iterator
scala.collection.mutable.Buffer <=> java.util.List
scala.collection.mutable.Set    <=> java.util.Set
scala.collection.mutable.Map    <=> java.util.Map
scala.collection.concurrent.Map <=> java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentMap

    The following conversions are supported via asScala and through specially-named extension methods to convert to Java collections, as shown:

    scala.collection.Iterable    <=> java.util.Collection   (via asJavaCollection)
scala.collection.Iterator    <=> java.util.Enumeration  (via asJavaEnumeration)
scala.collection.mutable.Map <=> java.util.Dictionary   (via asJavaDictionary)

    In addition, the following one-way conversions are provided via asJava:

    scala.collection.Seq         => java.util.List
scala.collection.mutable.Seq => java.util.List
scala.collection.Set         => java.util.Set
scala.collection.Map         => java.util.Map

    The following one way conversion is provided via asScala:

    java.util.Properties => scala.collection.mutable.Map

    In all cases, converting from a source type to a target type and back again will return the original source object. For example:

    import scala.collection.JavaConverters._

val source = new scala.collection.mutable.ListBuffer[Int]
val target: java.util.List[Int] = source.asJava
val other: scala.collection.mutable.Buffer[Int] = target.asScala
assert(source eq other)

    Alternatively, the conversion methods have descriptive names and can be invoked explicitly.

    scala> val vs = java.util.Arrays.asList("hi", "bye")
vs: java.util.List[String] = [hi, bye]

scala> val ss = asScalaIterator(vs.iterator)
ss: Iterator[String] = <iterator>

scala> .toList
res0: List[String] = List(hi, bye)

scala> val ss = asScalaBuffer(vs)
ss: scala.collection.mutable.Buffer[String] = Buffer(hi, bye)

  2. final def ##(): Int

    Equivalent to x.hashCode except for boxed numeric types and null.

    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.

    returns

    a hash value consistent with ==

    returns

    true if the receiver object is equivalent to the argument; false otherwise.

  6. final def asInstanceOf[T0]: T0

    Cast the receiver object to be of type T0.

    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

    the receiver object.

    Any
    Exceptions thrown

    ClassCastException if the receiver object is not an instance of the erasure of type T0.

  13. final def eq(arg0: AnyRef): Boolean

    Tests whether the argument (that) 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 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).

    returns

    true if the argument is a reference to the receiver object; false otherwise.

    Test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object is T0.

    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.
