how to handle implicit conversion ?

Can't you make it:

[override] def debug(format : String, arg1 : Any) ?

Hi,

I currently used a logging lib written in java
the java'method signature is
debug(String format, Object arg1)

I want to wrap the logger in a Richer api with support for more than
debug(...) method
So I wrote (simplify version)
debug(format : String, arg1 : Object) = wrapped.debug(format, arg1)

But the new code doesn't support logging int, ... (works with the java lib)

[WARNING] /MyFile.scala:19: error: type mismatch;

[WARNING]  are possible conversion functions from Int to java.lang.Object

(user access the 'log' via mixin)
trait LogEnabled {
 val log = new RichLogger(LoggerFactory.getLogger(this.getClass))
//  var log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(this.getClass)
}

How can I fix the problem without modifying the existing calling code ?

No because, the backend logger is in java and want an array og Object

def trace(format : String, arg1 : Any, arg2 : Any, arg3 : Any) = if
(backend.isTraceEnabled) backend.trace(MessageFormatter.format(format,
Array(arg1, arg2, arg3)))

For your original question, try:

  def debug(format : String, arg : Any) = wrapped.debug(format, arg.asInstanceOf[AnyRef])

For your array question: Does the Java library expect an Array or a multiple parameter list? If it's multiple parameters, what version of Scala are you using?

If it's just an Array, you can do this:

  def trace(format : String, args : Any*) = if (backend.isTraceEnabled) backend.trace(MessageFormatter.format(format, args.map(_.asInstanceOf[AnyRef])))

If it's multiple parameters and you're using a recent version of Scala, replace:

  args.map(_.asInstanceOf[AnyRef])

with:

  args.map(_.asInstanceOf[AnyRef]) : _*

No it doesn't work :

scala> def trace(format : String, args: Any*) =
println(MessageFormatter.format(format,
args.map(_.asInstanceOf[Object])))
def trace(format : String, args: Any*) =
println(MessageFormatter.format(format,
args.map(_.asInstanceOf[Object])))
trace: (String,Any*)Unit

scala> trace("hello {} {}", 3, "foo")
trace("hello {} {}", 3, "foo")
hello Array(3, foo) {}

because it's the wrong method of MessageFormatter that is called (the
first instead of the third):
public static final String format(String messagePattern, Object arg)
public static final String format(String messagePattern, Object
arg1, Object arg2)
public static final String arrayFormat(String messagePattern,
Object[] argArray)

currently form my scala code I cast the array to access the right
method. It's to avoid this repetitive cast/pattern that I try to wrote
a RichLogger
If I try to apply this cast

scala> def trace(format : String, args: Any*) =
println(MessageFormatter.format(format,
args.map(_.asInstanceOf[Object]).asInstanceOf[Array[Object]]))
def trace(format : String, args: Any*) =
println(MessageFormatter.format(format,
args.map(_.asInstanceOf[Object]).asInstanceOf[Array[Object]]))
trace: (String,Any*)Unit

scala> trace("hello {} {}", 3, "foo")
trace("hello {} {}", 3, "foo")

Try the following:

scala> def trace(format: String, args: Any*) = MessageFormatter.arrayFormat(format, args.map(_.asInstanceOf[AnyRef]).toArray)                           
def trace(format: String, args: Any*) = MessageFormatter.arrayFormat(format, args.map(_.asInstanceOf[AnyRef]).toArray)
trace: (String,Any*)java.lang.String

scala> trace("hello {} {}", 3, "foo")                                           trace("hello {} {}", 3, "foo")              
res8: java.lang.String = hello 3 foo

Thanks Jorge,

but the method is for logging (could be use in video pipeline), so (micro) performance are important => I avoid varargs and create severals method with 0 to 5 args
And my first adaptation to your code gave

scala> def trace(format : String, arg1: Any, arg2 : Any) = MessageFormatter.arrayFormat(format, Array(arg1, arg2).mapdef trace(format : String, arg1: Any, arg2 : Any) = MessageFormatter.arrayFormat(format, Array(arg1, arg2).map(_.asInstanceOf[AnyRef]).asInstanceOf[Array[AnyRef]].toArray)
def trace(format : String, arg1: Any, arg2 : Any) = MessageFormatter.arrayFormat(format, Array(arg1, arg2).map(_.asInstanceOf[AnyRef]).asInstanceOf[Array[AnyRef]].toArray)
<console>:5: error: overloaded method value apply with alternatives (Unit*)Array[Unit] <and> (Double*)Array[Double] <and> (Float*)Array[Float] <and> (Long*)Array[Long] <and> (Int*)Array[Int] <and> (Char*)Array[Char] <and> (Short*)Array[Short] <and> (Byte*)Array[Byte] <and> (Boolean*)Array[Boolean] <and> [A <: AnyRef](A*)Array[A] cannot be applied to (Any,Any)
       def trace(format : String, arg1: Any, arg2 : Any) = MessageFormatter.arrayFormat(format, Array(arg1, arg2).map(_.asInstanceOf[AnyRef]).asInstanceOf[Array[AnyRef]].toArray)

But if I did the "map" directly it works :

scala> def trace(format : String, arg1: Any, arg2 : Any) = MessageFormatter.arrayFormat(format, Array(arg1.asInstanceOf[AnyRef], arg2.asInstanceOf[AnyRef]).toArray)
def trace(format : String, arg1: Any, arg2 : Any) = MessageFormatter.arrayFormat(format, Array(arg1.asInstanceOf[AnyRef], arg2.asInstanceOf[AnyRef]).toArray)
trace: (String,Any,Any)java.lang.String

scala> trace("hello {} {}", "hello" ,33)
trace("hello {} {}", "hello" ,33)
res0: java.lang.String = hello hello 33

Thanks

 public static final String format(String messagePattern, Object
arg1, Object arg2)
 public static final String arrayFormat(String messagePattern,
Object[] argArray)

currently form my scala code I cast the array to access the right
method. It's to avoid this repetitive cast/pattern that I try to wrote
a RichLogger
If I try to apply this cast

scala> def trace(format : String, args: Any*) =
println(MessageFormatter.format(format,
args.map(_.asInstanceOf[Object]).asInstanceOf[Array[Object]]))
def trace(format : String, args: Any*) =
println(MessageFormatter.format(format,
args.map(_.asInstanceOf[Object]).asInstanceOf[Array[Object]]))
trace: (String,Any*)Unit

scala> trace("hello {} {}", 3, "foo")
trace("hello {} {}", 3, "foo")
java.lang.ClassCastException: scala.runtime.BoxedAnyArray cannot be
cast to [Ljava.lang.Object;

Quick note, the last .toArray is useless :

def trace(format : String, arg1: Any, arg2 : Any) = MessageFormatter.arrayFormat(format, Array(arg1.asInstanceOf[AnyRef], arg2.asInstanceOf[AnyRef]))

works

Thanks for your helps

Thanks Jorge,

but the method is for logging (could be use in video pipeline), so (micro) performance are important => I avoid varargs and create severals method with 0 to 5 args
And my first adaptation to your code gave

scala> def trace(format : String, arg1: Any, arg2 : Any) = MessageFormatter.arrayFormat(format, Array(arg1, arg2).mapdef trace(format : String, arg1: Any, arg2 : Any) = MessageFormatter.arrayFormat(format, Array(arg1, arg2).map(_.asInstanceOf[AnyRef]).asInstanceOf[Array[AnyRef]].toArray)
def trace(format : String, arg1: Any, arg2 : Any) = MessageFormatter.arrayFormat(format, Array(arg1, arg2).map(_.asInstanceOf[AnyRef]).asInstanceOf[Array[AnyRef]].toArray)
<console>:5: error: overloaded method value apply with alternatives (Unit*)Array[Unit] <and> (Double*)Array[Double] <and> (Float*)Array[Float] <and> (Long*)Array[Long] <and> (Int*)Array[Int] <and> (Char*)Array[Char] <and> (Short*)Array[Short] <and> (Byte*)Array[Byte] <and> (Boolean*)Array[Boolean] <and> [A <: AnyRef](A*)Array[A] cannot be applied to (Any,Any)
       def trace(format : String, arg1: Any, arg2 : Any) = MessageFormatter.arrayFormat(format, Array(arg1, arg2).map(_.asInstanceOf[AnyRef]).asInstanceOf[Array[AnyRef]].toArray)

But if I did the "map" directly it works :

scala> def trace(format : String, arg1: Any, arg2 : Any) = MessageFormatter.arrayFormat(format, Array(arg1.asInstanceOf[AnyRef], arg2.asInstanceOf[AnyRef]).toArray)
def trace(format : String, arg1: Any, arg2 : Any) = MessageFormatter.arrayFormat(format, Array(arg1.asInstanceOf[AnyRef], arg2.asInstanceOf[AnyRef]).toArray)
trace: (String,Any,Any)java.lang.String

scala> trace("hello {} {}", "hello" ,33)
trace("hello {} {}", "hello" ,33)
res0: java.lang.String = hello hello 33

Thanks

No it doesn't work :

scala> def trace(format : String, args: Any*) =
println(MessageFormatter.format(format,
args.map(_.asInstanceOf[Object])))
def trace(format : String, args: Any*) =
println(MessageFormatter.format(format,
args.map(_.asInstanceOf[Object])))
trace: (String,Any*)Unit

scala> trace("hello {} {}", 3, "foo")
trace("hello {} {}", 3, "foo")
hello Array(3, foo) {}

because it's the wrong method of MessageFormatter that is called (the
first instead of the third):
 public static final String format(String messagePattern, Object arg)
 public static final String format(String messagePattern, Object
arg1, Object arg2)
 public static final String arrayFormat(String messagePattern,
Object[] argArray)
