I'm looking for a way to convert a Scala singleton object given as a string (for example: package1.Main) to the actual instance of Main, so that I can invoke methods on it.
Example of the problem:
package x {
object Main extends App {
val objectPath: String = io.StdIn.readLine("Give an object: ") // user enters: x.B
// how to convert the objectPath (String) to a variable that references singleton B?
val b1: A = magicallyConvert1(objectPath)
b1.hi()
val b2: B.type = magicallyConvert2(objectPath)
b2.extra()
}
trait A {
def hi() = {}
}
object B extends A {
def extra() = {}
}
}
How can the magicallyConvert1 and magicallyConvert2 functions be implemented?
