6. #### abstract def info: Universe.Type

   The type signature of this symbol.

   The type signature of this symbol.

   This method always returns signatures in the most generic way possible, even if the underlying symbol is obtained from an instantiation of a generic type. For example, signature of the method `def map[B](f: (A) ⇒ B): List[B]`, which refers to the type parameter `A` of the declaring class `List[A]`, will always feature `A`, regardless of whether `map` is loaded from the `List[_]` or from `List[Int]`. To get a signature with type parameters appropriately instantiated, one should use `infoIn`.

    The owner of this symbol. This is the symbol that directly contains the current symbol's definition. The `NoSymbol` symbol does not have an owner, and calling this method on one causes an internal error. The owner of the Scala root class scala.reflect.api.Mirror.RootClass and the Scala root object scala.reflect.api.Mirror.RootPackage is `NoSymbol`.

    Set when symbol has a modifier of the form private[X] or protected[X], NoSymbol otherwise.

    Set when symbol has a modifier of the form private[X] or protected[X], NoSymbol otherwise.

    Access level encoding: there are three scala flags (PRIVATE, PROTECTED, and LOCAL) which combine with value privateWithin (the "foo" in private[foo]) to define from where an entity can be accessed. The meanings are as follows:

    PRIVATE access restricted to class only. PROTECTED access restricted to class and subclasses only. LOCAL can only be set in conjunction with PRIVATE or PROTECTED. Further restricts access to the same object instance.

    In addition, privateWithin can be used to set a visibility barrier. When set, everything contained in the named enclosing package or class has access. It is incompatible with PRIVATE or LOCAL, but is additive with PROTECTED (i.e. if either the flags or privateWithin allow access, then it is allowed.)

    The java access levels translate as follows:

    java private: isPrivate && (privateWithin == NoSymbol) java package: !isPrivate && !isProtected && (privateWithin == enclosingPackage) java protected: isProtected && (privateWithin == enclosingPackage) java public: !isPrivate && !isProtected && (privateWithin == NoSymbol)

    A type reference that refers to this type symbol Note if symbol is a member of a class, one almost always is interested in `asTypeIn` with a site type instead.

    Example: Given a class declaration `class C[T] { ... }` , that generates a symbol `C`. Then `C.toType` is the type `C[T]`.

7. #### final def asInstanceOf[T0]: T0

   Cast the receiver object to be of type `T0`.

   Cast the receiver object to be of type `T0`.

   Note that the success of a cast at runtime is modulo Scala's erasure semantics. Therefore the expression `1.asInstanceOf[String]` will throw a `ClassCastException` at runtime, while the expression `List(1).asInstanceOf[List[String]]` will not. In the latter example, because the type argument is erased as part of compilation it is not possible to check whether the contents of the list are of the requested type.

   returns

     the receiver object.

   Definition Classes

     `ClassCastException` if the receiver object is not an instance of the erasure of type `T0`.

17. #### final def eq(arg0: AnyRef): Boolean

    Tests whether the argument (`arg0`) is a reference to the receiver object (`this`).

    Tests whether the argument (`arg0`) is a reference to the receiver object (`this`).

    The `eq` method implements an equivalence relation on non-null instances of `AnyRef`, and has three additional properties:

    - It is consistent: for any non-null instances `x` and `y` of type `AnyRef`, multiple invocations of `x.eq(y)` consistently returns `true` or consistently returns `false`.
    - For any non-null instance `x` of type `AnyRef`, `x.eq(null)` and `null.eq(x)` returns `false`.
    - `null.eq(null)` returns `true`.

    When overriding the `equals` or `hashCode` methods, it is important to ensure that their behavior is consistent with reference equality. Therefore, if two objects are references to each other (`o1 eq o2`), they should be equal to each other (`o1 == o2`) and they should hash to the same value (`o1.hashCode == o2.hashCode`).

    returns

      `true` if the argument is a reference to the receiver object; `false` otherwise.

    Called by the garbage collector on the receiver object when there are no more references to the object.

    Test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object is `T0`.

    Test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object is `T0`.

    Note that the result of the test is modulo Scala's erasure semantics. Therefore the expression `1.isInstanceOf[String]` will return `false`, while the expression `List(1).isInstanceOf[List[String]]` will return `true`. In the latter example, because the type argument is erased as part of compilation it is not possible to check whether the contents of the list are of the specified type.

27. #### def isModuleClass: Boolean

    Does this symbol represent the definition of a class implicitly associated with an object definition (module class in scala compiler parlance).

    Does this symbol represent the definition of a class implicitly associated with an object definition (module class in scala compiler parlance). If yes, `isType` is also guaranteed to be true.

    Note to compiler developers: During the "mixin" phase, trait implementation class symbols receive the `lateMODULE` flag, hence `isImplClass && isModuleClass` becomes true.

29. #### def isTerm: Boolean

    Does this symbol represent the definition of a term? Note that every symbol is either a term or a type.

    Does this symbol represent the definition of a term? Note that every symbol is either a term or a type. So for every symbol `sym` (except for `NoSymbol`), either `sym.isTerm` is true or `sym.isType` is true.

35. #### def toString(): String

    Creates a String representation of this object.

    Creates a String representation of this object. The default representation is platform dependent. On the java platform it is the concatenation of the class name, "@", and the object's hashcode in hexadecimal.

    returns

      a String representation of the object.
