Unable to use object type as method argument in scala shell












0















The following code doesn't' work in scala shell, but it works in IDE, does anyone how can I use object type as method parameter in scala-shell, thanks.



scala> object A {
| }
defined object A

scala> def f(a:A) :Unit = {
| }
<console>:63: error: not found: type A
def f(a:A) :Unit = {

  • Just a thought, a function that accepts a unique singleton as its sole argument, is it not just a thunk?

You can use Object.type like this:



scala> object A {}
defined object A

scala> def f(a: A.type) = println("hello world")
f: (a: A.type)Unit

scala> f(A)
hello world

    Just add trait A :



    trait A
    object A extends A
    def f(a:A) :Unit = { }
