scalaShadowing

The scala.language object controls the language features available to the programmer, as proposed in the [[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1nlkvpoIRkx7at1qJEZafJwthZ3GeIklTFhqmXMvTX9Q/edit '''SIP-18 document''']].

Each of these features has to be explicitly imported into the current scope to become available: {{{ import language.postfixOps // or language._ List(1, 2, 3) reverse }}}

The language features are: - [[dynamics dynamics]] enables defining calls rewriting using the [[scala.Dynamic Dynamic]] trait - [[postfixOps postfixOps]] enables postfix operators - [[reflectiveCalls reflectiveCalls]] enables using structural types - [[implicitConversions implicitConversions]] enables defining implicit methods and members - [[higherKinds higherKinds]] enables writing higher-kinded types - [[existentials existentials]] enables writing existential types - [[experimental experimental]] contains newer features that have not yet been tested in production

and, for dotty:

• [[Scala2 Scala2]] backwards compatibility mode for Scala2
• [[noAutoTupling noAutoTupling]] disable auto-tupling
• [[strictEquality strictEquality]] enable strick equality
