ClassfileManager complains that a file does not exist

[rkuhn]

Using the lampepfl/dotty.g8 template with the following in Main.scala:

object Main {

  trait Op[S, +T] {
    def flatMap[U](f: T => Op[S, U]): Op[S, U]
  }

  sealed trait X[Y] extends Any {
    type S = Y
  }

  object X {
    private val _unit: Op[Nothing, Null] = ???
    private def unit[S, T]: Op[S, T] = _unit.asInstanceOf[Op[S, T]]

    def apply[T]: Next[T] = next.asInstanceOf[Next[T]]
    trait Next[T] {
      def apply[U](body: X[T] => Op[T, U]): Op[T, U] =
        unit[T, X[T]].flatMap(body)
    }
    private object next extends Next[Nothing]
  }

}

Running sbt shell and after a few compile runs while editing the following happens:

Running sbt shell and after a few compile runs while editing the following happens:

I tried adding/removing spaces and commenting/uncommenting a subset of the code but couldn't get it to crash, do you have a series of step that reliably reproduces the problem for you?

[rkuhn]

Unfortunately not, it happens sporadically during the edit/compile cycle. It just recurred on the larger project where this code comes from, and all occurrences were about a class whose name corresponds to a private object in a nested object as in the code shown above. I have not seen this error with any other class.

[smarter]

Next time it happens, could you zip the whole project, and upload that somewhere?

[rkuhn]

It happened on the bigger project, ZIP file is here.

[smarter]

Hmm, this is pretty annoying, I think sbt incremental compilation output is not platform-independent so when I try compiling your project in the zip it just recompiles everything. Ideally we would need a VM image here :). Anyway, for now let's see if we can at least rule some things out, we have a custom incOptions in the sbt-dotty plugin that appears in your stacktrace, could you try using an old version of sbt-dotty that didn't have this custom incOptions? In projects/plugins.sbt you need:

addSbtPlugin("ch.epfl.lamp" % "sbt-dotty" % "0.1.0-RC5")

instead of 0.1.1. Then just work as normal and see if the problem pops up again (if it does, please provide an updated stacktrace).

[smarter]

@sjrd Either seen something like this with Scala.js use of ClassfileManager? Any clue what could be going wrong?

[rkuhn]

Okay, will do.

[smarter]

@rkuhn Haha, I think I got it: sbt/sbt#1777 It seems the issue is that you're using a non-case-sensitive filesystem and have an object and a trait in the same package whose name only differ by case (next and Next in your original example). In Scala 2 this is not a problem because no companion class is generated for an inner object, but in dotty it seems that we do generate it for some reason. I would suggest simply avoiding identifiers that only differ in case for objects/traits/classes, but we should investigate why we generate these companions.

[sjrd]

No, never seen anything like that.

[rkuhn]

Ah, nice catch, yes that makes sense. (well, not really, not in 2017, but still)

[rkuhn]

So, should the compiler emit an error in this case, or do users of broken filesystems get to keep the pieces?

[DarkDimius]

@rkuhn we should emit a warning #2679

[smarter]

Opened #2680 to track the useless companion emitted, I think we can close this issue now, thanks @rkuhn !
