goal:
a representation of a type reference to a refinement class that's stable
across compilation runs (and thus insensitive to typing from source or
unpickling from bytecode)
problem:
the current representation, which corresponds to the owner chain of the
refinement:
1. is affected by pickling, so typing from source or using unpickled
symbols give different results (because the unpickler "localizes"
owners -- this could be fixed in the compiler in the long term)
2. can't distinguish multiple refinements in the same owner (this is
a limitation of SBT's internal representation and cannot be fixed in
the compiler)
solution:
expand the reference to the corresponding refinement type: doing that
recursively may not terminate, but we can deal with that by
approximating recursive references (all we care about is being sound for
recompilation: recompile iff a dependency changes, and this will happen
as long as we have one unrolling of the reference to the refinement)
- Read macro modifier from method definition.
- Always recompile downstream files after a file containing macro defs is recompiled.
- Source is extended with a hasMacro attribute. Mark suggests that this might be better
tracked in Relations, but I'm not sure how to make that change.
support lazy arguments in data type generator
SafeLazy implementation that explicitly clears the reference to the thunk
in API representation, drop synthetic modifier and merge deferred into abstract
handle cyclic structures in API generation, display, comparison, persistence
gzip compile cache file
bump to 2.8.1.RC3, project definition cleanup
fix main method detection to check for the right name
properly view inherited definitions
exclude constructors of ancestors
reverse the mapping of vals/vars to
private[this] fields and accessors
merge annotations from related members
don't handle bean getters/setters specially
because they are indistinguishable from
user-defined members as far as I can tell
* Fixes to API extraction and equality checking
* Reworked tracking
* New compile infrastructure based on API changes
* Example application for testing
