Line 809:
"class << e" uses the ''singleton class'' of "e", which is an automatic subclass of Empty that has only this single instance. Therefore we added the "foo" accessor only to "e", not to other instances of Empty.
{{works with|Scala|2.10}}
Since version 2.10 Scala supports dynamic types. Dynamic types have to implement trait ''Dynamic'' and implement methods ''selectDynamic'' and ''updateDynamic''.
<lang scala>import language.dynamics
import scala.collection.mutable.HashMap
class A extends Dynamic {
private val map = new HashMap[String, Any]
def selectDynamic(name: String): Any = {
return map(name)
}
def updateDynamic(name:String)(value: Any) = {
map(name) = value
}
}</lang>
Sample output in the REPL:
<lang scala>scala> val a = new A
a: A = A@7b20f29d
scala> a.foo = 42
a.foo: Any = 42
scala> a.foo
res10: Any = 42</lang>
