object ClassManifest
[source: scala/reflect/ClassManifest.scala]
object ClassManifest
extends AnyRef

This object is used by the compiler and should not be used in client code. The object Manifest defines factory methods for manifests.

BE AWARE: The factory for refinement types is missing and will be implemented in a later version of this class.

Value Summary
val Any : scala.reflect.Manifest[Any]
val AnyVal : scala.reflect.Manifest[AnyVal]
val Boolean : scala.reflect.Manifest[Boolean]
val Byte : scala.reflect.Manifest[Byte]
val Char : scala.reflect.Manifest[Char]
val Double : scala.reflect.Manifest[Double]
val Float : scala.reflect.Manifest[Float]
val Int : scala.reflect.Manifest[Int]
val Long : scala.reflect.Manifest[Long]
val Nothing : scala.reflect.Manifest[Nothing]
val Null : scala.reflect.Manifest[Null]
val Object : scala.reflect.Manifest[AnyRef]
val Short : scala.reflect.Manifest[Short]
val Unit : scala.reflect.Manifest[Unit]
Method Summary
def abstractType [T](prefix : OptManifest[Any], name : java.lang.String, upperBound : ClassManifest[Any], args : OptManifest[Any]*) : ClassManifest[T]
ClassManifest for the abstract type `prefix # name'. `upperBound' is not strictly necessary as it could be obtained by reflection. It was added so that erasure can be calculated without reflection.
def arrayType [T](arg : OptManifest[Any]) : ClassManifest[Array[T]]
def classType [T <: AnyRef](clazz : java.lang.Class[Any]) : ClassManifest[T]
ClassManifest for the class type `clazz', where `clazz' is a top-level or static class.
def classType [T <: AnyRef](prefix : OptManifest[Any], clazz : java.lang.Class[Any], args : OptManifest[Any]*) : ClassManifest[T]
ClassManifest for the class type `clazz[args]', where `clazz' is a class with non-package prefix type `prefix` and type arguments `args`.
def classType [T <: AnyRef](clazz : java.lang.Class[Any], arg1 : OptManifest[Any], args : OptManifest[Any]*) : ClassManifest[T]
ClassManifest for the class type `clazz[args]', where `clazz' is a top-level or static class and `args` are its type arguments
def fromClass [T](clazz : java.lang.Class[T]) : ClassManifest[T]
def intersectionType [T](parents : ClassManifest[Any]*) : ClassManifest[T]
ClassManifest for the intersection type `parents_0 with ... with parents_n'.
def singleType [T](value : Any) : scala.reflect.Manifest[T]

def singleType[T](value : Any) : scala.reflect.Manifest[T]
def classType[T <: AnyRef](clazz : java.lang.Class[Any]) : ClassManifest[T]
ClassManifest for the class type `clazz', where `clazz' is a top-level or static class.
Notes
This no-prefix, no-arguments case is separate because we it's called from ScalaRunTime.boxArray itself. If we pass varargs as arrays into this, we get an infinitely recursive call to boxArray. (Besides, having a separate case is more efficient)
def classType[T <: AnyRef](clazz : java.lang.Class[Any], arg1 : OptManifest[Any], args : OptManifest[Any]*) : ClassManifest[T]
ClassManifest for the class type `clazz[args]', where `clazz' is a top-level or static class and `args` are its type arguments
def classType[T <: AnyRef](prefix : OptManifest[Any], clazz : java.lang.Class[Any], args : OptManifest[Any]*) : ClassManifest[T]
ClassManifest for the class type `clazz[args]', where `clazz' is a class with non-package prefix type `prefix` and type arguments `args`.
def arrayType[T](arg : OptManifest[Any]) : ClassManifest[Array[T]]
def abstractType[T](prefix : OptManifest[Any], name : java.lang.String, upperBound : ClassManifest[Any], args : OptManifest[Any]*) : ClassManifest[T]
ClassManifest for the abstract type `prefix # name'. `upperBound' is not strictly necessary as it could be obtained by reflection. It was added so that erasure can be calculated without reflection.
