By-Name-Parameters for Constructors
- by hotzen
Hello,
coming from my other question is there a way to get by-name-parameters for constructors working? I need a way to provide a code-block which is executed on-demand/lazy/by-name inside an object and this code-block must be able to access the class-methods as if the code-block were part of the class.
Following Testcase fails:
package test
class ByNameCons(code: => Unit) {
def exec() = {
println("pre-code")
code
println("post-code")
}
def meth() = println("method")
def exec2(code2: => Unit) = {
println("pre-code")
code2
println("post-code")
}
}
object ByNameCons {
def main(args: Array[String]): Unit = {
val tst = new ByNameCons {
println("foo")
meth() // knows meth() as code is part of ByNameCons
}
tst.exec() // ByName fails (executed right as constructor)
println("--------")
tst.exec2 { // ByName works
println("foo")
//meth() // does not know meth() as code is NOT part of ByNameCons
}
}
}
Output:
foo
method
pre-code
post-code
--------
pre-code
foo
post-code
