trait Proxy

[source: scala/Proxy.scala]

trait Proxy
extends AnyRef
This class implements a simple proxy that forwards all calls to methods of class Any to another object self. Please note that only those methods can be forwarded that are overridable and public.

Method Summary
override def equals (that : Any) : Boolean
This method is used to compare the receiver object (this) with the argument object (arg0) for equivalence.
override def hashCode : Int
Returns a hash code value for the object.
abstract def self : Any
override def toString : java.lang.String
Returns a string representation of the object.

Method Details
abstract def self : Any

override def hashCode : Int
Returns a hash code value for the object.

The default hashing algorithm is platform dependent. Note that it is allowed for two objects to have identical hash codes (o1.hashCode.equals(o2.hashCode)) yet not be equal (o1.equals(o2) returns false). A degenerate implementation could always return 0. However, it is required that if two objects are equal (o1.equals(o2) returns true) that they have identical hash codes (o1.hashCode.equals(o2.hashCode)). Therefore, when overriding this method, be sure to verify that the behavior is consistent with the equals method.

Returns
the hash code value for the object.


override def equals(that : Any) : Boolean
This method is used to compare the receiver object (this) with the argument object (arg0) for equivalence.

The default implementations of this method is an equivalence relation:

  • It is reflexive: for any instance x of type Any, x.equals(x) should return true.
  • It is symmetric: for any instances x and y of type Any, x.equals(y) should return true if and only if y.equals(x) returns true.
  • It is transitive: for any instances x, y, and z of type AnyRef if x.equals(y) returns true and y.equals(z) returns true, then x.equals(z) should return true.

If you override this method, you should verify that your implementation remains an equivalence relation. Additionally, when overriding this method it is often necessary to override hashCode to ensure that objects that are "equal" (o1.equals(o2) returns true) hash to the same Int (o1.hashCode.equals(o2.hashCode)).

Parameters
arg0 - the object to compare against this object for equality.
Returns
true if the receiver object is equivalent to the argument; false otherwise.


override def toString : java.lang.String
Returns a string representation of the object.

The default representation is platform dependent.

Returns
a string representation of the object.
