class DynamicVariable[T] extends AnyRef
DynamicVariables provide a binding mechanism where the current
value is found through dynamic scope, but where access to the
variable itself is resolved through static scope.
The current value can be retrieved with the value method. New values
should be pushed using the withValue method. Values pushed via
withValue only stay valid while the withValue's second argument, a
parameterless closure, executes. When the second argument finishes,
the variable reverts to the previous value.
someDynamicVariable.withValue(newValue) {
// ... code called in here that calls value ...
// ... will be given back the newValue ...
} Each thread gets its own stack of bindings. When a
new thread is created, the DynamicVariable gets a copy
of the stack of bindings from the parent thread, and
from then on the bindings for the new thread
are independent of those for the original thread.

- 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 aClassCastExceptionat 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

- final def eq(arg0: AnyRef): Boolean
Tests whether the argument (

that) is a reference to the receiver object (this).The
eqmethod implements an equivalence relation on non-null instances ofAnyRef, and has three additional properties:- It is consistent: for any non-null instances
xandyof typeAnyRef, multiple invocations ofx.eq(y)consistently returnstrueor consistently returnsfalse. - For any non-null instance
xof typeAnyRef,x.eq(null)andnull.eq(x)returnsfalse. null.eq(null)returnstrue.
When overriding the
equalsorhashCodemethods, 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
trueif the argument is a reference to the receiver object;falseotherwise.

Int,Float,ArrayorOptionwhich are accessible in all Scala compilation units without explicit qualification or imports.Notable packages include:
scala.collectionand its sub-packages contain Scala's collections frameworkscala.collection.immutable- Immutable, sequential data-structures such asVector,List,Range,HashMaporHashSetscala.collection.mutable- Mutable, sequential data-structures such asArrayBuffer,StringBuilder,HashMaporHashSetscala.collection.concurrent- Mutable, concurrent data-structures such asTrieMapscala.concurrent- Primitives for concurrent programming such asFuturesandPromisesscala.io- Input and output operationsscala.math- Basic math functions and additional numeric types likeBigIntandBigDecimalscala.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.collection.parallel- Parallel collections (scala-parallel-collections.jar)scala.util.parsing- Parser combinators (scala-parser-combinators.jar)scala.swing- A convenient wrapper around Java's GUI framework called Swing (scala-swing.jar)Automatic imports
Identifiers in the scala package and the
scala.Predefobject are always in scope by default.Some of these identifiers are type aliases provided as shortcuts to commonly used classes. For example,
Listis an alias forscala.collection.immutable.List.Other aliases refer to classes provided by the underlying platform. For example, on the JVM,
Stringis an alias forjava.lang.String.
