    Basic support for heterogeneous lists, aka HLists.

    Basic support for heterogeneous lists, aka HLists.

    An HList can be constructed like so:

    import net.liftweb.common.HLists._

trait Base
case class Type1(value: String) extends Base
case class Type2(otherValue: String) extends Base

val myHList = Type1("Value") :+: Type2("Other Value") :+: HNil
myHList match {
  case firstThing :+: secondThing :+: HNil =>
    println(firstThing.value)
    println(secondThing.otherValue)
}

    Above, we see that the HList preserved the value of the types of its members, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to fetch value and otherValue, respectively.

    Trying the same thing with a list won't work:

    val myList = Type1("Value") :: Type2("Other Value") :: Nil
myList match {
  case firstThing :: secondThing :: Nil =>
    // error: value value is not a member of Product with Serializable with Base
    println(firstThing.value)
}

    This is because value is not defined in Base. The inferred type of the List has to be a common ancestor class or trait of Type1 and Type2, and no such type has a value method.

HListMethods

implicit final class HListMethods[ListSoFar <: HList] extends AnyRef

Provides the methods that can be used on an HList. These are set apart here due to certain issues we can experience otherwise with the type variance on the :+: class.
