scala self-type: member of type parameter error
Question
This is a followup to this question.
Why does this code not compile, and how do I fix it?
trait Vec[V] { self:V =>
def -(v:V):V
def dot(v:V):Double
def norm:Double = math.sqrt(this dot this)
def dist(v:V):Double = (this - v).norm
}
The error is:
Vec.scala:6: error: value norm is not a member of type parameter V
def dist(v:V):V = (this - v).norm
^
Solution 2
The proper solution is:
trait Vec[V <: Vec[V]] { self:V =>
def -(v:V):V
def dot(v:V):Double
def norm:Double = math.sqrt(this dot this)
def dist(v:V):Double = (this - v).norm
}
Props to Debilski for the answer to a related question.
OTHER TIPS
By changing the definition of - to
def -(v:V):Vec[V]
