I am coding using scala3, leveraging programmatic structural types. The structural types happen to mimic existing case classes: their definition is pure boiler plate, hence the temptation to craft them through meta-programming.
I understand how to craft a function implementation, typically via typeclass derivation. But here we are trying to craft a (structural) type.
This was possible in scala2, via class macro annotation, but those are gone in scala3. Is there a way ? If so how ?
Code below is the result I would like to obtain :
// Library part
trait View extends scala.Selectable :
def selectDynamic(key:String) =
println(s"$key is being looked up")
???
// DSL Definition part
case class SomeDefWithInt ( i : Int )
case class SomeDefWithString( s : String )
// Boiler-plate code
type ViewOf[M] = M match
case SomeDefWithInt => View { def i : Int }
case SomeDefWithString => View { def s : String }
// Mockup usage
class V extends View
val v = V()
v.asInstanceOf[ViewOf[SomeDefWithInt ]].i
v.asInstanceOf[ViewOf[SomeDefWithString]].s
is it possible to create ViewOf[M] of an arbitrary case class M ?
Thank you !
Just in case, here is what I meant by hiding ViewOf inside a type class (type classes is an alternative to match types). Sadly, in Scala 3 this is wordy.

println(s"$key is being looked up with $args")
if (key == "i") 1
else if (key == "s") "a"
else ???
}
def selectDynamic(key: String): Any = {
println(s"$key is being looked up")
if (key == "i1") 2
else if (key == "s1") "b"
else ???
}

ViewOf[M]is meant is to be used by a DSL user, so no way to hide it within a derived type class.
Not sure I understood.

Another implementation of the type class (with a refinement type instead of trait type)

names.zip(infos).foldLeft(parent){ case (acc, (name, tpe)) => Refinement(acc, name, tpe) }
def newType(cls: Symbol, name: String, tpe: TypeRepr, flags: Flags = Flags.EmptyFlags, privateWithin: Symbol = Symbol.noSymbol): Symbol = {

}
val M = TypeRepr.of[M]
val fields = M.typeSymbol.caseFields
val fieldNames = fields.flatMap(fieldSymb => Seq(fieldSymb.name, fieldSymb.name + "1"))
val fieldMethodTypes = fields.flatMap(fieldSymb => Seq(
MethodType(List("args"))(_ => List(AnnotatedType(TypeRepr.of[Any], '{new scala.annotation.internal.Repeated()}.asTerm)), _ => M.memberType(fieldSymb)),

Also we can use Mirror instead of reflection
(version 3)
trait ViewOf[M <: Product] {
type Out <: View
}
object ViewOf {
transparent inline given mkViewOf[M <: Product]: ViewOf[M] = ${givenImpl[M]}
def givenImpl[M <: Product : Type](using Quotes): Expr[ViewOf[M]] = {
import quotes.reflect.*
def makeRefinement(parent: TypeRepr, namesAndTypes: List[(String, TypeRepr)]): TypeRepr =
namesAndTypes.foldLeft(parent) { case (acc, (name, tpe)) => Refinement(acc, name, tpe) }
def mkNamesAndTypes[mels: Type, mets: Type]: List[(String, TypeRepr)] =
(Type.of[mels], Type.of[mets]) match {
case ('[EmptyTuple], '[EmptyTuple]) => Nil
case ('[mel *: melTail], '[met *: metTail] ) => {
val name = Type.valueOfConstant[mel].get.toString
val name1 = name + "1"
//scala.MatchError: Inlined(Ident(Macros$),List(),Apply(Select(New(Select(Select(Select(Ident(scala),annotation),internal),Repeated)),<init>),List())) (of class dotty.tools.dotc.ast.Trees$Inlined)
//val methodType = MethodType(List("args"))(_ => List(AnnotatedType(TypeRepr.of[Any], '{new scala.annotation.internal.Repeated()}.asTerm)), _ => TypeRepr.of[met])
val methodType = MethodType(Nil)(_ => Nil, _ => TypeRepr.of[met])
val methodType1 = ByNameType(TypeRepr.of[met])
(name, methodType) :: (name1, methodType1) :: mkNamesAndTypes[melTail, metTail]
}
}
val namesAndTypes = Expr.summon[Mirror.ProductOf[M]].get match {
case '{ $m: Mirror.ProductOf[M] { type MirroredElemLabels = mels; type MirroredElemTypes = mets } } =>
mkNamesAndTypes[mels, mets]
}
val res = makeRefinement(TypeRepr.of[View], namesAndTypes).asType match {
case '[tpe] =>
'{
new ViewOf[M] {
type Out = tpe
}
}
}
println(res.show)
res
}
}
Unfortunately, this doesn't work because of an extra type ascription (Expr looses type refinement)
//scalac: {
// final class $anon() extends Macros.ViewOf[App.SomeDefWithInt] {
// type Out = Macros.View {
// def i(): scala.Int
// def i1: scala.Int
// }
// }
//
// (new $anon(): Macros.ViewOf[App.SomeDefWithInt]) // <--- HERE!!!
//}
https://github.com/lampepfl/dotty/issues/15566 (for structural refinements i.e. defs, their loss seems to be expected behavior, but type refinement loss can be a bug)
So, at least once we have to use low-level newClass to avoid type ascription
