尽管优先考虑隐含，为什么我会收到“模棱两可的隐含”错误？

Question

[error] test.scala:31: ambiguous implicit values:
[error]  both method taggedQueryParamDecoder in trait ExternalInstances0 of type [A, T](implicit evidence$2: org.http4s.QueryParamDecoder[A])org.http4s.QueryParamDecoder[scalaz.@@[A,T]]
[error]  and method iiQueryParamDecoder in trait ExternalInstances1 of type [B](implicit ii: foo.InvariantInstances[B])org.http4s.QueryParamDecoder[B]
[error]  match expected type org.http4s.QueryParamDecoder[scalaz.@@[String,foo.tags.Social]]
[error]   implicitly[QueryParamDecoder[String @@ Social]]
[error]             ^

我导入instances._； instances 扩展 ExternalInstances1 和 ExternalInstances1 扩展 ExternalInstances0。由于这种继承，我希望ExternalInstances1 的成员能够胜过ExternalInstances0 的成员，而不是产生歧义。

为什么会发生这种情况，我该如何解决？谢谢。

Answer 1

根据 Sasha Kolberg 的评论和 http://eed3si9n.com/revisiting-implicits-without-import-tax，我想我在 ExternalInstances0（+1 分）中有一个“更具体”的定义，在 ExternalInstances1（+1 分）中有一个“更高优先级”的定义，导致平局和模棱两可。

我的解决方法是在ExternalInstances1 中添加一个“更具体、更高优先级”的定义（+2 分？）以打破平局，即使它是重复代码，这基本上是样板文件。

我很想知道更好的解决方案。谢谢！
