trait Equiv[T] extends Serializable
A trait for representing equivalence relations. It is important to distinguish between a type that can be compared for equality or equivalence and a representation of equivalence on some type. This trait is for representing the latter.
An equivalence relation
is a binary relation on a type. This relation is exposed as
the equiv
method of the Equiv
trait. The relation must be:
- reflexive:
equiv(x, x) == true
for any x of typeT
. - symmetric:
equiv(x, y) == equiv(y, x)
for anyx
andy
of typeT
. - transitive: if
equiv(x, y) == true
andequiv(y, z) == true
, thenequiv(x, z) == true
for anyx
,y
, andz
of typeT
.

.Equivalent to
x.hashCode
except for boxed numeric types andnull
. 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. Fornull
returns a hashcode wherenull.hashCode
throws aNullPointerException
.- returns
a hash value consistent with ==

.Cast the receiver object to be of type

.Note that the success of a cast at runtime is modulo Scala's erasure semantics. Therefore the expression
1.asInstanceOf[String]
will throw aClassCastException
at runtime, while the expressionList(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

- def equals(arg0: Any): Boolean
Compares the receiver object (
this
) with the argument object (that
) for equivalence.Compares the receiver object (
this
) with the argument object (that
) for equivalence.Any implementation of this method should be an equivalence relation:
- It is reflexive: for any instance
x
of typeAny
,x.equals(x)
should returntrue
. - It is symmetric: for any instances
x
andy
of typeAny
,x.equals(y)
should returntrue
if and only ify.equals(x)
returnstrue
. - It is transitive: for any instances
x
,y
, andz
of typeAny
ifx.equals(y)
returnstrue
andy.equals(z)
returnstrue
, thenx.equals(z)
should returntrue
.
If you override this method, you should verify that your implementation remains an equivalence relation. Additionally, when overriding this method it is usually necessary to override
hashCode
to ensure that objects which are "equal" (o1.equals(o2)
returnstrue
) hash to the same scala.Int. (o1.hashCode.equals(o2.hashCode)
).- returns
true
if the receiver object is equivalent to the argument;false
otherwise.

Calculate a hash code value for the object.
The default hashing algorithm is platform dependent.
Note that it is allowed for two objects to have identical hash codes (
o1.hashCode.equals(o2.hashCode)
) yet not be equal (o1.equals(o2)
returnsfalse
). A degenerate implementation could always return0
. However, it is required that if two objects are equal (o1.equals(o2)
returnstrue
) that they have identical hash codes (o1.hashCode.equals(o2.hashCode)
). Therefore, when overriding this method, be sure to verify that the behavior is consistent with theequals
method.- returns

- 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

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
.
