@tgeng please don't use threads.

Second, that is not a valid Functor.

At least not one represented using typeclasses.

You need the F parameter.

Ah well no.

Forget about it.

I am not used to extension methods.

tgeng

@tgeng

Thanks @BalmungSan ! I am not sure I follow. Anyway. Let me explain my second question.

Luis Miguel Mejía Suárez

@BalmungSan

No no

You are right.

I am just rusty with Scala 3.

I guess the extension makes it impossible to use the stdlib map

That is probably a bug.

No idea.

tgeng

@tgeng

Right, that's my second question.

Luis Miguel Mejía Suárez

@BalmungSan

Still I don't think people will use inner extensions.

For multiple reasons.

I guess most people will keep using the Scala 2 pattern of having the typeclass and the extensions defined separately.

tgeng

@tgeng

OK, so you mean define fmap just as a non-extension function and then define an extension map calling fmap?

Luis Miguel Mejía Suárez

@BalmungSan

Yup.

Or even just map

(sorry for the late response)

just like cats does as today.

tgeng

@tgeng

Got it! Makes sense! Thank you very much!!

Luis Miguel Mejía Suárez

@BalmungSan

But again, it may be just me not using Scala 3 a lot yet.

Is just that for a couple of things I have seen, that I think that most people will NOT use extension inside the typeclass definition.

tgeng

@tgeng

TBH, I have basically 0 experience with scala 2 so now that I kind of get that extension is a new thing that may not interact well with other language features.

Again, thank you for helping me!

hi all, I am getting below error when I am running sbt dependencyBrowseTree. I made sure I am using sbt version=1.5.6 and also added enablePlugins(MiniDependencyTreePlugin) in my build.sbt. Can someone help me to solve this error?
stack trace is suppressed; run last Compile / dependencyBrowseTreeHTML for the full output

@ritschwumm

@rohithbittu33_twitter what does last Compile / dependencyBrowseTreeHTML say? anything interesting in the stack trace?

Clinton Mead

@clintonmead

What do I need the type of x to be in the following code to be able to refer to x.f in g()? A.B didn't work.

trait A {
    trait B {
        def f: Unit
    }
}

object O {
    def g(x : ?): Unit {
        x.f
    }
}

A#B?

lambook

@lambook

Hello there, i want to write a method to concatenate many Byte arrays
def join(parts : Array[Byte]* ) : Array[Byte] ={...
is there already something to do that in scala ? thnx

Luis Miguel Mejía Suárez

@BalmungSan

@lambook parts.toArray.flatten

@clintonmead Note that your code means that for every instance of A there will be a new different type B so in order to properly reference B you first need an instance of a

Are you sure that is what you want?

Tim Spence

@TimWSpence

I was trying to convince scala 3 to recusrively flatten nested Eithers of some unknown depth but couldn’t figure out how to do it.
I got a match type that describes the expected output type:

case class Inv[T]()

type FlattenR[X] = Inv[X] match
  case Inv[Either[ValidationError, x]] => FlattenR[x]
  case Inv[x]                                                  => Either[ValidationError, x]

but couldn’t figure out a way around erasure to implement it at the value level?

I can do something like list.sortBy(_.date) where date is java.util.Date, because there is an implicit Ordering[Date] in scope. But where is it?

Luis Miguel Mejía Suárez

@BalmungSan

@DCameronMauch here: https://www.scala-lang.org/api/current/scala/math/Ordering$.html#ordered[A](implicitasComparable:LowPriorityOrderingImplicits.this.AsComparable[A]):scala.math.Ordering[A]

implicit def ordered[A](implicit asComparable: AsComparable[A]): Ordering[A]

And ju.Date extends Comparable[Date]

D Cameron Mauch

@DCameronMauch

Ah, gotcha, thanks!

I wanted to do reverse, so I guess I could do something like implicitly[Ordering[Date]].reverse

Yep, that seems to work!

Luis Miguel Mejía Suárez

@BalmungSan

yup

I have submitted a PR making Discord officially our main chat platform: scala/scala-lang#1312

this room (scala/scala) will remain open, but perhaps not forever
