is there a way to make this tail recursive?
def findGapsForSorted(x: List[Int]): List[Tuple2[Int, Int]] =
def solveFor(xs: List[Int]): List[Tuple2[Int, Int]] =
val midpoint = xs.length/2
if xs.length > 2 then
val last = xs.last
if (first + xs.length - 1 >= last)
then List((first, last))
else
solveFor(xs.slice(0, midpoint)) ++
solveFor(xs.slice(midpoint, xs.length))
else
xs match
case Nil => List.empty
case List(one) => List((one, one))
case start :: end :: Nil =>
if (start + 1) >= end
then List((start, end))
else List((start, start), (end, end))
case _ => ???

solveFor(x)
.foldLeft(List.empty) { (state, el) =>
state match
case h :+ (start, end) if end + 1 == el._1 => h :+ (start, el._2)
case xs => xs :+ el
}

Yes, but it's probably not worth it. Stack depth is on the order of log2(xs.length) which can never be larger than 32.
However you're doing a lot of O(N) operations here (.length, ++, :+) that might make this routine slow for large inputs.

Hello there!

Is there some way to get at an object's runtime TypeTag in Scala 3?

(I'm not using macros. I just want to output it, in order to provide a helpful message in some unit tests.)

Is it safe to add the 2.13 version of the scala-reflect API to my libraryDependencies with cross-compilation?

Or is there a better way of doing this in Scala 3?

Rob Norris
@tpolecat
You just want the name of a type for diagnostic purposes?
Graham Brown
@geronimus
Yes, that's it!
Rob Norris
@tpolecat
This may do what you want https://github.com/tpolecat/typename
It works in Scala 2 and3
"Works", I should say.
Graham Brown
@geronimus
Magnificent! Thank you!
Rob Norris
@tpolecat
Getting the string representation for a type is a longstanding and super irritating problem in Scala and it has no general solution as far as I know. Many people have told me "oh that should be easy" but it's not.

@Swoorup
@tpolecat that means I would probably have to use arrays along with tailrecursion
Graham Brown
@geronimus
Thanks @tpolecat and @OlegYch ! This solves my immediate problem and also makes for a lot of interesting reading.

I'm getting a NoSuchMethodError trying to call this Java method https://github.com/testcontainers/testcontainers-java/blob/8965712f239ae3c449cec579264af5e79265f314/core/src/main/java/org/testcontainers/images/builder/traits/ClasspathTrait.java#L13 from Scala 3. @smarter is there anything about this Java type that makes you suspicious?
It works fine when called from Scala 2.11/12/13

Is xml string interpolation implemented as a feature of Scala 3 ? If positive, how can I make

xml"""
|<p>Hello World!</p>
|""".stripMargin

compile? I always receive a value xml is not a member of StringContext error message.

Luis Miguel Mejía Suárez
@BalmungSan
AFAIK xml support is not part of the compiler anymore.
If such interpolator exists it should be part of some library, maybe this one: https://github.com/scala/scala-xml

is the sample code for xml interpolation at https://dotty.epfl.ch/docs/reference/dropped-features/xml.html compilable in anyway?
Luis Miguel Mejía Suárez
@BalmungSan
It seems the Scala 3 docs are still at RC1
Uhm, I hope the will update them soon.
Rob Norris
@tpolecat
Tom Grigg
@griggt
@BalmungSan 3.0.1-RC1, not 3.0.0-RC1
Luis Miguel Mejía Suárez
@BalmungSan
ups
But that import doesn't work on 3.0.0 so maybe it was just added?
Tom Grigg
@griggt
the docs for 3.0.0 are not online afaik
Luis Miguel Mejía Suárez
@BalmungSan
Ah it is another library @shvahabi:matrix.org https://github.com/lampepfl/xml-interpolator
Tom Grigg
@griggt
jinx

[m]
Thanks @griggt and @BalmungSan it seems to be the right answer. But that library seems neither have a release nor being published to scaladex. How can I add it as a dependency? Any solution other than an unmanaged dependency in lib folder?
It also is not available under dotty here https://dotty.epfl.ch/api/index.html
Luis Miguel Mejía Suárez
@BalmungSan
@shvahabi:matrix.org lampepfl/xml-interpolator#17
It seems that repo is just a PoC (that apparently was successful)
So the final results should be merged into scala-xml and published soon.
As of today, it seems there is not easy way of using it.
You may want to pop up in that issue and show interest in it being merged.

Hi, I've noticed that getting the name of method parameters seems to have changed between 2.13.4 and 2.13.5.

When I have a method

def listCars(airport-code: String): Seq[String] = ???

and try to get the names via

classOf[RentalStation].getMethod("listCars", classOf[String]).getParameters.map(_.getName)

Previously it returned "airport-code" for the parameter and now it seems to return "airport\$minuscode". My guess is the internal representation has changed and therefore the java reflection no longer works as expected. Is there any other way to solve this than a bandaid-solution using .replaceAll() ?

(This is not my code, so please don't explain to me that reflection is bad, I know that. I'm just trying to upgrade this very commonly used library)

Luis Miguel Mejía Suárez
@BalmungSan
Maybe using Scala reflection over Java one would provide better results?
(just a pointer, no idea how to do that, sorry)
Felix Bruckmeier
@felixbr
The end goal of my efforts is to make this library Scala 3 compatible. So using scala-reflect might indeed work but introducing it doesn't exactly help with the Scala 3 migration 🙂
Guillaume Martres
@smarter
The names had to be encoded because you can't store any random String as a parameter name
to get back the original names you'd have to decode them
Felix Bruckmeier
@felixbr
Is there a function to do that?
Guillaume Martres
@smarter
(it's in scala.reflect but it's actually part of scala-library)
Felix Bruckmeier
@felixbr
Thank you, this helps a lot :)
