This adds a new lint warning for when a class/method/type-member's
type parameter shadows an existing type: `-Xlint:type-parameter-shadow`.
It excludes type parameters of synthetic methods (the user can't
rename or remove those anyway), otherwise, for example, every case class
triggers the warning.
Also fixes a test that contained wrong java sources (that didn't even
compile...), discovered thanks to the warning.
---
This kind of errors shows up every now and then on the mailing-list, on
stackoverflow, etc. so maybe a warning would be useful.
I was afraid this would yield too many warnings for libraries that are
heavy on type parameters, but no: running this on scalaz and shapeless
HEAD (`v7.1.0-RC1-41-g1cc0a96` and `v2.0.0-M1-225-g78426a0` respectively)
yields 44 warnings. None of them are false positives; they usually come
from:
- scalaz loving using `A` as type parameter, even several levels deep
of parametrized classes/methods
- or calling a type parameter that will hold a map `Map`, or similar,
thus shadowing an existing type

It turns out `findMembers` has been a bit sloppy in recent
years and has returned private members from *anywhere* up the
base class sequence. Access checks usually pick up the slack
and eliminate the unwanted privates.
But, in concert with the "concrete beats abstract" rule in
`findMember`, the following mishap appeared:
scala> :paste
// Entering paste mode (ctrl-D to finish)
trait T { def a: Int }
trait B { private def a: Int = 0 }
trait C extends T with B { a }
// Exiting paste mode, now interpreting.
<console>:9: error: method a in trait B cannot be accessed in C
trait C extends T with B { a }
^
I noticed this when compiling Akka against JDK 8; a new private method
in the bowels of the JDK was enough to break the build!
It turns out that some finesse in needed to interpret SLS 5.2:
> The private modifier can be used with any definition or declaration
> in a template. They are not inherited by subclasses [...]
So, can we simply exclude privates from all but the first base class?
No, as that might be a refinement class! The following must be
allowed:
trait A { private def foo = 0; trait T { self: A => this.foo } }
This commit:
- tracks when the walk up the base class sequence passes the
first non-refinement class, and excludes private members
- ... except, if we are at a direct parent of a refinement
class itself
- Makes a corresponding change to OverridingPairs, to only consider
private members if they are owned by the `base` Symbol under
consideration. We don't need to deal with the subtleties of
refinements there as that code is only used for bona-fide classes.
- replaces use of `hasTransOwner` when considering whether a
private[this] symbol is a member.
The last condition was not grounded in the spec at all. The change
is visible in cases like:
// Old
scala> trait A { private[this] val x = 0; class B extends A { this.x } }
<console>:7: error: value x in trait A cannot be accessed in A.this.B
trait A { private[this] val x = 0; class B extends A { this.x } }
^
// New
scala> trait A { private[this] val x = 0; class B extends A { this.x } }
<console>:8: error: value x is not a member of A.this.B
trait A { private[this] val x = 0; class B extends A { this.x } }
^
Furthermore, we no longer give a `private[this]` member a free pass
if it is sourced from the very first base class.
trait Cake extends Slice {
private[this] val bippy = ()
}
trait Slice { self: Cake =>
bippy // BCS: Cake, Slice, AnyRef, Any
}
The different handling between `private` and `private[this]`
still seems a bit dubious.
The spec says:
> An different form of qualification is private[this]. A member M
> marked with this modifier can be accessed only from within the
> object in which it is defined. That is, a selection p.M is only
> legal if the prefix is this or O.this, for some class O enclosing
> the reference. In addition, the restrictions for unqualified
> private apply.
This sounds like a question of access, not membership. If so, we
should admit `private[this]` members from parents of refined types
in `FindMember`.
AFAICT, not too much rests on the distinction: do we get a
"no such member", or "member foo inaccessible" error? I welcome
scrutinee of the checkfile of `neg/t7475f.scala` to help put
this last piece into the puzzle.
One more thing: findMember does not have *any* code the corresponds
to the last sentence of:
> SLS 5.2 The modifier can be qualified with an identifier C
> (e.g. private[C]) that must denote a class or package enclosing
> the definition. Members labeled with such a modifier are accessible
> respectively only from code inside the package C or only from code
> inside the class C and its companion module (ยง5.4).
> Such members are also inherited only from templates inside C.
When I showed Martin this, he suggested it was an error in the
spec, and we should leave the access checking to callers of
that inherited qualified-private member.

I had covered a few more cases working on this recently.
The warnings in several more cases involving polymorphism,
currying, and selects vs. idents receive more refined
handling.

This idea brought to you by retronym.
Also improve implicitNotFound detection at typer;
and avoid checking the standard interpolation
expression for cases like s"some $$x".
Some minor refactorings of implicitNotFound strings.
The intersobralator allows extra spaces, i.e., trims.

In the compiler sources this arrives with a number of false
positives, because we frequently work with strings containing
$foo where foo is an in-scope identifier. I think in normal
source code this will be less of a problem, or none at all;
but to be conservative the warning is born under -Xlint.
