Represent a match as a formula in propositional logic that encodes whether the match matches (abstractly: we only consider types)
Interface with user-defined match monad?
if there's a __match in scope, we use this as the match strategy, assuming it conforms to MatchStrategy as defined below:
Interface with user-defined match monad?
if there's a __match in scope, we use this as the match strategy, assuming it conforms to MatchStrategy as defined below:
type Matcher[P[_], M[+_], A] = { def flatMap[B](f: P[A] => M[B]): M[B] def orElse[B >: A](alternative: => M[B]): M[B] } abstract class MatchStrategy[P[_], M[+_]] { // runs the matcher on the given input def runOrElse[T, U](in: P[T])(matcher: P[T] => M[U]): P[U] def zero: M[Nothing] def one[T](x: P[T]): M[T] def guard[T](cond: P[Boolean], then: => P[T]): M[T] }
P and M are derived from one's signature (def one[T](x: P[T]): M[T])
if no __match is found, we assume the following implementation (and generate optimized code accordingly)
object __match extends MatchStrategy[({type Id[x] = x})#Id, Option] { def zero = None def one[T](x: T) = Some(x) // NOTE: guard's return type must be of the shape M[T], where M is the monad in which the pattern match should be interpreted def guard[T](cond: Boolean, then: => T): Option[T] = if(cond) Some(then) else None def runOrElse[T, U](x: T)(f: T => Option[U]): U = f(x) getOrElse (throw new MatchError(x)) }

true if !(this == that), false otherwise.
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.

The expression x == that is equivalent to if (x eq null) that eq null else x.equals(that).
The expression x == that is equivalent to if (x eq null) that eq null else x.equals(that).
true if the receiver object is equivalent to the argument; false otherwise.
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.

ClassCastException if the receiver object is not an instance of the erasure of type T0.
Compute the type T implied for a value v matched by a pattern pat (with expected type pt).
Compute the type T implied for a value v matched by a pattern pat (with expected type pt).
Usually, this is the pattern's type because pattern matching implies instance-of checks.
However, Stable Identifier and Literal patterns are matched using ==,
which does not imply a type for the binder that binds the matched value.
See SI-1503, SI-5024: don't cast binders to types we're not sure they have
TODO: update spec as follows (deviation between **):
A pattern binder x@p consists of a pattern variable x and a pattern p. The type of the variable x is the static type T **IMPLIED BY** the pattern p. This pattern matches any value v matched by the pattern p **Deleted: , provided the run-time type of v is also an instance of T, ** and it binds the variable name to that value.
Addition:
A pattern p _implies_ a type T if the pattern matches only values of the type T.

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:
x and y of type AnyRef, multiple invocations of
x.eq(y) consistently returns true or consistently returns false.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).

well as the interaction between finalize and non-local returns
and exceptions, are all platform dependent.
