在 Scala 中构建 `this.type` 的实例

Question

我正在研究一个名为 Graphlike 的图形特征，我在其中使用依赖/关联类型作为顶点。在solving my polymorphism issues 之后，我的实现如下所示：

trait Graphlike {
  type Vertex

  def subgraph(selectedVertices: Set[Vertex]): this.type
}

我还有各种抽象的原子状态自动机，它们的行为当然像图：

trait Automaton extends Graphlike {
  type State
  type Vertex = State

  def states: Iterable[State]
  def initialState: State
  def getBuilder: AutomatonBuilder[this.type]


  def subgraph(selectedVertices: Set[Vertex]) = {
    val builder = getBuilder
    // Some logic to actually do something to the builder here
    builder.getAutomaton
  }
}

trait AutomatonBuilder[A <: Automaton] {
  def getAutomaton: A
}

但是，当我尝试实际实现一个具体的自动机时，我遇到了麻烦：

class ConcreteAutomaton extends Automaton {
  type State = Int

  def states = List(1, 2, 3)
  def initialState = 1
  def getBuilder = new ConcreteAutomatonBuilder

}

class ConcreteAutomatonBuilder extends AutomatonBuilder[ConcreteAutomaton] {
  def getAutomaton = new ConcreteAutomaton
}

class UsesAutomataAsGraphs {
  val aut = new ConcreteAutomaton
  aut.subgraph(Set(aut.initialState)).subgraph(Set(aut.initialState))
}

给予：

[error] /Users/albin/Downloads/example/src/main/scala/example/Example.scala:33:20: type mismatch;

[error] Note: ConcreteAutomaton >: ConcreteAutomaton.this.type (and ConcreteAutomatonBuilder <: AutomatonBuilder[ConcreteAutomaton]), but trait AutomatonBuilder is invariant in type A.
[error] You may wish to define A as -A instead. (SLS 4.5)
[error]   def getBuilder = new ConcreteAutomatonBuilder
[error]                    ^

遵循建议并制作 A 逆变器会给我带来其他问题。这也不是我真正想要的。我想要我的建造者生产完全相同类型的自动机。

Answer 1

我在这里添加另一个答案，因为它与另一个答案明显不同，而且它会变得太大。这个使用类型类和隐式类来做所有事情，我觉得它更安全，即使它看起来像样板，对你来说有点太多了。

不是将subgraph 放在Graphlike 特征中，而是不同的对象执行子图方法并构造新的自动机。隐式类提供了 subgraph 方法，因为我无法证明 G 是 Graphlike 特征本身中 this 的类型。

trait Graphlike {
  type Vertex
}
trait Automaton extends Graphlike {
  type State
  type Vertex = State

  def states: Iterable[State]
  def initialState: State
}
class ConcreteAutomaton extends Automaton {
  type State = Int

  def states = List(1, 2, 3)
  def initialState = 1
}

trait AutomatonBuilder[+A <: Automaton] {
  def getAutomaton: A
}
class ConcreteAutomatonBuilder extends AutomatonBuilder[ConcreteAutomaton] {
  def getAutomaton = new ConcreteAutomaton
}


trait Subgraph[G <: Graphlike] {
  def subgraph(graph: G)(selectedVertices: Set[graph.Vertex]): G
}
trait AutomatonSubgraph[A <: Automaton] extends Subgraph[A] {
  protected def newBuilder: AutomatonBuilder[A]
  def subgraph(automaton: A)(selectedVertices: Set[automaton.Vertex]): A = {
    val builder = newBuilder
    //Do stuff to the builder here
    builder.getAutomaton
  }
}
implicit object ConcreteAutomatonSubgraph extends AutomatonSubgraph[ConcreteAutomaton] {
  protected def newBuilder = new ConcreteAutomatonBuilder()
}

implicit class Subgraphable[+G <: Graphlike](graph: G)(implicit sub: Subgraph[G]) {
  def subgraph(selectedVertices: Set[graph.Vertex]): G = sub.subgraph(graph)(selectedVertices)
}

class UsesAutomataAsGraphs {
  val aut = new ConcreteAutomaton
  val x = aut.subgraph(Set(aut.initialState)).subgraph(Set(aut.initialState))
}

Answer 2

“构建this.type 的实例”听起来很奇怪。无论如何：

trait Graphlike {
  type Vertex

  def subgraph(selectedVertices: Set[Vertex]): this.type
}

trait Automaton extends Graphlike {
  type State
  type Vertex = State

  def states: Iterable[State]
  def initialState: State
  def getBuilder: AutomatonBuilder[this.type]

  def subgraph(selectedVertices: Set[Vertex]): this.type = {
    val builder = getBuilder
    // Some logic to actually do something to the builder here
    builder.getAutomaton
  }
}

trait AutomatonBuilder[A <: Automaton] {
  def getAutomaton: A
}

class ConcreteAutomaton extends Automaton {
  type State = Int

  def states = List(1, 2, 3)
  def initialState = 1
  def getBuilder = new ConcreteAutomatonBuilder[this.type](this)   
}

class ConcreteAutomatonBuilder[A <: Automaton with Singleton](a: A) extends AutomatonBuilder[A] {
  def getAutomaton = a
}

Automaton 知道AutomatonBuilder 也很奇怪。

Answer 3

按照 Dmytro Mitin 在另一个问题上的 answer，您可以通过使子图接受 Set[A#Vertex] 而不是 Set[this.Vertex] 来做到这一点。您不能像我在回答中建议的那样使用this.type，因为您从中获取子图的原始自动机可能会实现您的构建者不可能知道的各种东西。

trait Graphlike[G <: Graphlike[G]] {
  type Vertex

  def subgraph(selectedVertices: Set[G#Vertex]): G
}

trait Automaton[A <: Automaton[A]] extends Graphlike[A] {
  type State
  type Vertex = State

  def getBuilder: AutomatonBuilder[A]
  def states: Iterable[State]
  def initialState: State

  def subgraph(selectedVertices: Set[A#Vertex]): A = {
    val builder = getBuilder
    // Some logic to actually do something to the builder here
    builder.addVertices(selectedVertices) //Example

    builder.getAutomaton
  }
}

trait AutomatonBuilder[A <: Automaton[A]] {
  def getAutomaton: A
  //example
  val verts = Set[A#Vertex]()
  def addVertices(s: Set[A#Vertex]): Unit = verts ++ s
}

class ConcreteAutomaton extends Automaton[ConcreteAutomaton] {
  type State = Int

  def states = List(1, 2, 3)
  def initialState = 1
  val getBuilder = new ConcreteAutomatonBuilder
}

class ConcreteAutomatonBuilder extends AutomatonBuilder[ConcreteAutomaton] {
  def getAutomaton = new ConcreteAutomaton
}

class UsesAutomataAsGraphs {
  val aut: ConcreteAutomaton = new ConcreteAutomaton
  aut.subgraph(Set(aut.initialState)).subgraph(Set(aut.initialState))
}
