Hey,

See attached example. Is that a known bug or am I doing something wrong?

Regards,
Stefan

import scala.reflect.runtime.universe._
import scala.reflect.macros.blackbox.Context
import scala.language.experimental.macros
 
abstract class A {
  val is: Int
}
 
def fooImpl(c: Context)(expr: c.Expr[Any]) = {
  import c.universe._
 
  println(expr)
  // Expr[Nothing]({
  //   final class $anon extends $line22.$read.$iw.$iw.$iw.$iw.$iw.$iw.A {
  //     def <init>(): <$anon: A> = {
  //       $anon.super.<init>();
  //       ()
  //     };
  //     private[this] val is: Int = 100;
  //     override <stable> <accessor> def is: Int = $anon.this.is
  //   };
  //   new $anon()
  // })
 
  val untypedExpr = c.Expr[Any](c.untypecheck(expr.tree.duplicate))
 
  println(untypedExpr)   // this is invalid: override private[this] val is = 100; 
  // Expr[Any]({
  //   final class $anon extends $line22.$read.$iw.$iw.$iw.$iw.$iw.$iw.A {
  //     def <init>() = {
  //       super.<init>();
  //       ()
  //     };
  //     override private[this] val is = 100;
  //     override <stable> <accessor> def is: Int = $anon.this.is
  //   };
  //   new $anon()
  // })
 
  untypedExpr
}
 
def foo(expr: => Any): Any = macro fooImpl
 
// 1. this does not work
foo {
  new A {
    override val is = 100
  }
}
 
// <console>:18: error: value is overrides nothing
//             override val is = 100
 
// 2. this works
val tree = reify {
  new A {
    override val is = 100
  }
}
 
// tree: reflect.runtime.universe.Expr[A] =
// Expr[A]({
//   final class $anon extends $read.A {
//     def <init>() = {
//       super.<init>();
//       ()
//     };
//     override val is = 100
//   };
//   new $anon()
// })
