scala> import scala.reflect.runtime.universe.typeOf scala> import scala.annotation.Annotation scala> import java.lang.Deprecated scala> typeOf[Deprecated] <:< typeOf[Annotation] res0: Boolean = true scala> val x: Deprecated = null x: Deprecated = null scala> x: Annotation java.lang.VerifyError: Bad type on operand stack The same happens with any Java annotation, Deprecated isn’t special. What is the intention? Why should Java annotations subtype scala.annotation.Annotation? This is mentioned in a comment in SI-9400, but that’s about a different issue and I think if this is a bug it deserves its own ticket. -- Daniel Armak -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "scala-language" group.
