Represents mode of operations of the typechecker underlying c.typecheck calls.
Represents mode of operations of the typechecker underlying c.typecheck calls.
Is necessary since the shape of the typechecked tree alone is not enough to guess how it should be typechecked.
Can be EXPRmode (typecheck as a term), TYPEmode (typecheck as a type) or PATTERNmode (typecheck as a pattern).
Indicates that an argument to c.typecheck should be typechecked as a pattern.
Indicates that an argument to c.typecheck should be typechecked as a term.
Indicates that an argument to c.typecheck should be typechecked as a term.
This is the default typechecking mode in Scala 2.11 and the only one supported in Scala 2.10.

Compiles a tree using this ToolBox.
Compiles a tree using this ToolBox.
If the tree has unresolved type variables (represented as instances of FreeTypeSymbol symbols),
then they all have to be resolved first using Tree.substituteTypes, or an error occurs.
This spawns the compiler at the Namer phase, and pipelines the tree through that compiler.
Currently compile does not accept trees that already typechecked, because typechecking isn't idempotent.
For more info, take a look at https://issues.scala-lang.org/browse/SI-5464.
Defines a top-level class, trait or module in this ToolBox, putting it into a uniquely-named package and returning a symbol that references the defined entity.
Defines a top-level class, trait or module in this ToolBox, putting it into a uniquely-named package and returning a symbol that references the defined entity. For a ClassDef, a ClassSymbol is returned, and for a ModuleDef, a ModuleSymbol is returned (not a module class, but a module itself).
This method can be used to generate definitions that will later be re-used by subsequent calls to
compile, define or eval. To refer to the generated definition in a tree, use q"$sym".

Accumulates and displays warnings and errors, can drop to interactive mode (if supported). The latter can be useful to study the typechecker or to debug complex macros.
scala.tools.reflect provides two predefined front ends that can be created using scala.tools.reflect.mkSilentFrontEnd and scala.tools.reflect.mkConsoleFrontEnd.

Optional pos parameter provides a position that will be associated with the implicit search.
As mentioned in https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/scala-internals/ta-vbUT6JE8 this API won't take into account the lexical context of the callsite, because currently it's impossible to reify it.
If silent is false, ToolBoxError will be thrown in case of an inference error.
If silent is true, the typecheck is silent and will return EmptyTree if an error occurs.
Such errors don't vanish and can be inspected by turning on -Xlog-implicits.
Unlike in typecheck, silent is true by default.
Infers an implicit view from the provided tree tree from the type from to the type to in the toplevel context.

Typechecks a tree against the expected type pt

Typechecks a tree against the expected type pt
under typechecking mode specified in mode with EXPRmode being default.
This populates symbols and types of the tree and possibly transforms it to reflect certain desugarings.
If the tree has unresolved type variables (represented as instances of FreeTypeSymbol symbols),
then they all have to be resolved first using Tree.substituteTypes, or an error occurs.
If silent is false, ToolBoxError will be thrown in case of a typecheck error.
If silent is true, the typecheck is silent and will return EmptyTree if an error occurs.
Such errors don't vanish and can be inspected by turning on -Ydebug.
Typechecking can be steered with the following optional parameters:
withImplicitViewsDisabled recursively prohibits implicit views (though, implicit vals will still be looked up and filled in), default value is false
withMacrosDisabled recursively prohibits macro expansions and macro-based implicits, default value is false

Equivalent to x.hashCode except for boxed numeric types and null.
For numerics, it returns a hash value which is consistent
with value equality: if two value type instances compare
as true, then ## will produce the same hash value for each
of them.
For null returns a hashcode where null.hashCode throws a
NullPointerException.

The expression x == that is equivalent to if (x eq null) that eq null else x.equals(that).

true if the receiver object is equivalent to the argument; false otherwise.
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.

Tests whether the argument (that) is a reference to the receiver object (this).
Tests whether the argument (that) 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:
x and y of type AnyRef, multiple invocations of
x.eq(y) consistently returns true or consistently returns false.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).

Therefore the expression 1.isInstanceOf[String] will return false, while the
