a default Equality
for type A
Trait that defines abstract methods used to enforce compile-time type constraints for equality comparisons, and defines
===
and!==
operators used by matchers.The abstract methods of this trait are selectively implemented as implicit by subclasses to enable a spectrum of type constraints for the
===
and!==
operators. As an illustration, if in the expression,a === b
, the type ofa
isA
andb
isB
, the following three levels of compile-time checking can be obtained fromTripleEqualsSupport
subtraits:Unchecked -
A
andB
can be any two types. This constraint level is available from subtraitTripleEquals
.Statically-checked -
A
must be a subtype ofB
, or vice versa, or must cooperate such that the equality laws stated in theequals
contract are preserved. This (intermediate) constraint level is available by using subtraitTripleEquals
and installing the SuperSafe Community Edition Scala compiler plugin.Type-checked -
A
must be a subtype ofB
, or vice versa. (BothA
andB
can be the same type, because a type is considered a subtype of itself.) This (strongest) constraint level is available from subtraitTypeCheckedTripleEquals
.This trait defines all methods that need to be defined implicitly by the subtraits so that if multiple subtraits are used together, the inner-most subtrait in scope can not only enable the implicits it needs by overriding or hiding those methods (currently-in-scope as regular, non-implicit methods) and making them implicit, it can also disable any implicits enabled by its sibling subtraits in enclosing scopes. For example, if your test class mixes in
TypeCheckedTripleEquals
, inside your test class the following methods will be implicit:convertToCheckingEqualizer
typeCheckedConstraint
lowPriorityTypeCheckedConstraint
convertEquivalenceToAToBConstraint
convertEquivalenceToBToAConstraint
If in the body of a test you want to turn off the type checking, you can import the members of
TripleEquals
in the body of that test. This will not only hide non-implicit methodsconvertToEqualizer
unconstrainedEquality
ofTypeCheckedTripleEquals
, replacing those with implicit ones defined inTripleEquals
, it will also hide the three methods made implicit inTypeCheckedTripleEquals
(and listed above), replacing them by non-implicit ones.In short, you should be able to select a primary constraint level via either a mixin or import, then change that in nested scopes however you want, again either through a mixin or import, without getting any implicit conversion ambiguity. The innermost constraint level in scope will always be in force.
