| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Imported sbt.Process into trunk, in the guise of package scala.sys.process. It is largely indistinguishable from the version in sbt, at least from the outside. Also, I renamed package system to sys. I wanted to do that from the beginning and the desire has only grown since then. Sometimes a short identifier is just critical to usability: with a function like error("") called from hundreds of places, the difference between system.error and sys.error is too big. sys.error and sys.exit have good vibes (at least as good as the vibes can be for functions which error and exit.) Note: this is just the first cut. I need to check this in to finish fixing partest. I will be going over it with a comb and writing documentation which will leave you enchanted, as well as removing other bits which are now redundant or inferior. No review. | ||||

Explaining something for the (largeish N)th time finally awoke me to the fact that software can explain things. I labored a long time over this error message: I'm sure it can still use work (and/or it will drive scalaz users off some kind of cliff) but the simple common case people have so much trouble with is lit up like a christmas tree and for this I will take some bullets. build/pack/bin/scala -e 'class Foo[T] ; Set[Foo[AnyRef]]() + new Foo[String]' :1: error: type mismatch; found : this.Foo[String] required: this.Foo[java.lang.Object] Note: String <: java.lang.Object, but class Foo is invariant in type T. You may wish to define T as +T instead. (SLS 4.5) class Foo[T] ; Set[Foo[AnyRef]]() + new Foo[String] ^ Review by moors. |
