Scala example source code file (IsSeqLike.scala)

This example Scala source code file (IsSeqLike.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.)

Scala tags/keywords

a, a0, c, char, isseqlike, repr, seqlike, string

/** Type class witnessing that a collection representation type `Repr` has
  * elements of type `A` and has a conversion to `SeqLike[A, Repr]`.
  *
  * This type enables simple enrichment of `Seq`s with extension methods which
  * can make full use of the mechanics of the Scala collections framework in
  * their implementation.
  *
  * Example usage:
  * {{{
  *    class FilterMapImpl[A, Repr](val r: SeqLike[A, Repr]) {
  *      final def filterMap[B, That](f: A => Option[B])(implicit cbf: CanBuildFrom[Repr, B, That]): That =
  *        r.flatMap(f(_))
  *    }
  *    implicit def filterMap[Repr, A](r: Repr)(implicit fr: IsSeqLike[Repr]): FilterMapImpl[fr.A,Repr] =
  *      new FilterMapImpl(fr.conversion(r))
  *
  *    val l = List(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
  *    List(1, 2, 3, 4, 5) filterMap (i => if(i % 2 == 0) Some(i) else None)
