abstract class AnyValManifest[T <: AnyVal] extends Manifest[T] with Equals
trait ClassTag[T] extends ClassManifestDeprecatedApis[T] with Equals with Serializable

A ClassTag[T] stores the erased class of a given type T, accessible via the runtimeClass field.
trait Manifest[T] extends ClassManifest[T] with Equals

A Manifest[T] is an opaque descriptor for type T.
trait OptManifest[+T] extends Serializable

A OptManifest[T] is an optional scala.reflect.Manifest.
type ClassManifest[T] = ClassTag[T]

A ClassManifest[T] is an opaque descriptor for type T.
A ClassManifest[T] is an opaque descriptor for type T. It is used by the compiler to preserve information necessary for instantiating Arrays in those cases where the element type is unknown at compile time.
The type-relation operators make an effort to present a more accurate picture than can be realized with erased types, but they should not be relied upon to give correct answers. In particular they are likely to be wrong when variance is involved or when a subtype has a different number of type arguments than a supertype.
