Interesting, got an example? Also, what version of Scala were you on?
- seanmcdirmid 12y agoThis was in 2006/7 when I was working on scalac, so the early 2.1/2.2 days. I seemed to often push the type system in places that were not well defined, mostly because my scala style was so different (very OO, but with heavy recursive use of type parameters). Unfortunately, I've forgotten what the cases were, but they were usually simple constructions.
- virtualwhys 12y agoheh, ok, the stone ages of Scala ;-) Current Scala (2.11) has many issues to be ironed out, but I'd be surprised if the topic at hand here were one of them.
