Scala example source code file (GenNames.scala)

This example Scala source code file (GenNames.scala) is included in my "Source Code Warehouse" project. The intent of this project is to help you more easily find Scala source code examples by using tags.

All credit for the original source code belongs to scala-lang.org; I'm just trying to make examples easier to find. (For my Scala work, see my Scala examples and tutorials.)

The GenNames.scala Scala example source code

package scala.reflect.reify
package codegen

trait GenNames {
  self: Reifier =>

  import global._

  def reifyName(name: Name) = {
    val factory = if (name.isTypeName) nme.TypeName else nme.TermName
    mirrorCall(factory, Literal(Constant(name.toString)))
  }
}
