Example:
trait Tc1[A]
trait Tc2[A]
class X
object X {
implicit def catchAll[F[_]]: F[X] = ???
}
type ManualLambda[a] = Tc1[a] & Tc2[a]
object app extends App {
implicitly[Tc1[X]] //ok
implicitly[ManualLambda[X]] // ok
implicitly[Tc1[X] & Tc2[X]] // no implicit argument of type Tc1[X] & Tc2[X] was found for parameter ev of method implicitly in object DottyPredef
}
Expected:
catchAll should make nearly all implicit searches succeed for X (Scala 2 behavior)
Actual:
search for Tc1[X] & Tc2[X] fails with
no implicit argument of type Tc1[X] & Tc2[X] was found for parameter ev of method implicitly in object DottyPredef
Note that catchAll is not mentioned in the error as it was not considered, meanwhile search for ManualLambda succeeds. Seems like dotty doesn't create the equivalent of ManualLambda to fill F parameter currently
