- This workshop is a down-to-earth live coding session
- No philosophical discussions: for that check out "Macros vs Types" and "Philosophy of Scala Macros"
- No plans for the future: for that check out "Rethinking Scala Macros" and the upcoming "Easy Metaprogramming For Everyone"
- Macro-based optimizers
- Implicit materializers
We'll be using Scala 2.11.x with all the new goodies including quasiquotes and macro bundles, but we'll also spend some time discussing 2.10.x compatibility.
- Macro-based languge virtualization that was elaborated on in "Yin-Yang: Transparent Deep Embedding of DSLs" and "An Embedded Query Language in Scala"
- Type providers that were outlined in "Macro-Based Type Providers in Scala" and the accompanying code repository for that talk
- Macro annotations that were also presented in "Macro-Based Type Providers in Scala"
- String interpolation macros that will be covered at ScalaDays: "Quote Or Be Quoted"
Macro-based optimizers, hygiene and owner chains: /tree/part1
