* some renamingsEugene Burmako2014-02-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It’s almost 1am, so I’m only scratching the surface, mechanistically applying the renames that I’ve written down in my notebook: * typeSignature => info * declarations => decls * nme/tpnme => termNames/typeNames * paramss => paramLists * allOverriddenSymbols => overrides Some explanation is in order so that I don’t get crucified :) 1) No information loss happens when abbreviating `typeSignature` and `declarations`. We already have contractions in a number of our public APIs (e.g. `typeParams`), and I think it’s fine to shorten words as long as people can understand the shortened versions without a background in scalac. 2) I agree with Simon that `nme` and `tpnme` are cryptic. I think it would be thoughtful of us to provide newcomers with better names. To offset the increase in mouthfulness, I’ve moved `MethodSymbol.isConstructor` to `Symbol.isConstructor`, which covers the most popular use case for nme’s. 3) I also agree that putting `paramss` is a lot to ask of our users. The double-“s” convention is very neat, but let’s admit that it’s just weird for the newcomers. I think `paramLists` is a good compromise here. 4) `allOverriddenSymbols` is my personal complaint. I think it’s a mouthful and a shorter name would be a much better fit for the public API.

* mirrors now support overriden fields and methodsEugene Burmako2012-08-061-10/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously `checkMemberOf` was blocking base fields and methods that are overriden in receiver.getClass. Now this is fixed. The fix also uncovered an issue with field mirrors. Currently their `get` and `set` methods don't respect overriding and always return field values from a base class. After discussing this on a reflection meeting, we decided that this behavior is desirable and that for overriding people should use reflectMethod and then apply on getters/setters. See the discussion at: https://github.com/scala/scala/pull/1054.
* sanity check for reflectConstructorEugene Burmako2012-08-061-0/+4
| | | | | | | | In 911bbc4 I've completely overlooked the fact that reflectConstructor exists and that is also needs sanity checks. Now reflectConstructor checks that the incoming symbol is actually a ctor, and that it is actually a ctor of the class reflected by the current mirror.
* renames asType to toType and asXXXSymbol to asXXXEugene Burmako2012-08-021-4/+4
| | | | | | | This renaming arguably makes the intent of `asType` more clear, but more importantly it shaves 6 symbols off pervasive casts that are required to anything meaningful with reflection API (as in mirror.reflectMethod(tpe.member(newTermName("x")).asMethodSymbol)).
* SI-5984 improves error reporting in JavaMirrorsEugene Burmako2012-07-191-0/+30
Factors out error raising code and introduces a special exception class for Scala reflection errors. Also adds membership sanity checks to reflectXXX. Previously reflectField, reflectMethod, reflectClass and reflectModule in InstanceMirror didn't check that the symbols being passed to them actually correspond to some member of the related class.
