Semantics of typed holes

The value of a type hole can simply said to be undefined, although a typed hole triggers a compile-time error, so it is not strictly necessary to assign it a value. However, a typed hole (when they are enabled) produces a compile time error (or warning with deferred type errors) which states the nam...

Using rewrite rules on overloaded functions

In this question, @Viclib asked about using rewrite rules to exploit typeclass laws to eliminate some overloaded function calls: Mind the following class: class ListIsomorphic l where toList :: l a -> [a] fromList :: [a] -> l a I also demand that toList . fromList == id. H...

Automatically processing data received from a serial port

Some devices connected through a serial port send data to your program at a constant rate (streaming data) or send data at unpredictable intervals. You can configure the serial port to execute a function automatically to handle data whenever it arrives. This is called the "callback function&quo...

Convenient in-model sanitizing

Limitations to Inference

There are scenarios in which Scala type-inference does not work. For instance, the compiler cannot infer the type of method parameters: def add(a, b) = a + b // Does not compile def add(a: Int, b: Int) = a + b // Compiles def add(a: Int, b: Int): Int = a + b // Equivalent expression, compiles ...

Splitting a string into a list

To split strings, Guava introduces the Splitter class. Why not use Java's splitting capabilities? As a rule, Guava does not duplicate functionality that is readily available in Java. Why then do we need an additional Splitter class? Do the split methods in Java's String class not provide us with a...
