EDIT: Here is a much simpler formulation of the problem, using Foo as an example of the Aux pattern which does work:

// Foo is a simple Aux-pattern type
trait Foo[A, B] { type Out }

object Foo {
  type Aux[A, B, C] = Foo[A, B] { type Out = C }
  // One instance, turning Int+String into Boolean
  implicit val instance: Foo.Aux[Int, String, Boolean] = null
}

// Wrapper is exactly the same but contains a higher-kinded type
trait Wrapper[A, B] { type Contract[_] }

object Wrapper {
  type Aux[A, B, C[_]] = Wrapper[A, B] { type Contract[_] = C[_] }
  // One instance, linking Int + String to Option
  implicit val instance: Wrapper.Aux[Int, String, Option] = null
}

// Same test for both
def fooTest[A, B, C](implicit ev: Foo.Aux[A, B, C]): C = ???
def wrapperTest[X[_]](implicit ev: Wrapper.Aux[Int, String, X]): X[Boolean] = ???

// Compiles as expected
fooTest: Boolean

// Does not compile: could not find implicit value for parameter ev: Wrapper.Aux[Int,String,X]
wrapperTest: Option[Boolean]

// Does compile:
wrapperTest(implicitly[Wrapper.Aux[Int, String, Option]]): Option[Boolean]

Old formulation of the question:

Apologies for the convoluted example below. I essentially want to duplicate the Aux pattern for higher-kinded types.

The scala:

// Foo is a normal Aux pattern calculation
trait Foo[A, B] { type Out }

object Foo {
  type Aux[A, B, C] = Foo[A, B] { type Out = C }
  // Foo turns Int + String into Boolean
  implicit val intInstance: Foo.Aux[Int, String, Boolean] = null
}

// Wrapper is supposed to be a type-level computation across
// type-level functions
// It takes two types and binds them with a contract (a nested
// type-level function)
trait Wrapper[A, B] { type Contract[X] }

object Wrapper {
  type Aux[A, B, C[_]] = Wrapper[A, B] { type Contract[X] = C[X] }

  // It has one instance: It binds Int and String to the type-level
  // function Foo.
  implicit val fooWrapper: Wrapper.Aux[Int, String, Foo.Aux[Int, String, ?]] = null

}

object Testing {

  trait TestResult[X]

  // We summon a Contr, which is provided by Wrapper
  // The idea is we get the result of Foo's computation without summoning
  // Foo explicitly. This allows us to easily swap Foo out for another
  // Function if we desire
  implicit def testing[A, B, Contr[_], X](
    implicit wrapper: Wrapper.Aux[A, B, Contr],
    foo: Contr[X]
  ): TestResult[X] = ???


  // Compiles as expected
  implicitly[Wrapper.Aux[Int, String, Foo.Aux[Int, String, ?]]]
  implicitly[Wrapper[Int, String]]
  implicitly[Foo.Aux[Int, String, Boolean]]
  implicitly[Foo[Int, String]]
  val result1: TestResult[Boolean] = testing[Int, String, Foo.Aux[Int, String, ?], Boolean]

  // Does not compile
  val result2: TestResult[Boolean] = testing
  implicitly[TestResult[Boolean]]
}

This is what I expect to happen in that last line:

  • We're searching for a TestResult[Boolean]
  • testing says we need a Contr[Boolean] for some Contr provided by Wrapper
  • Wrapper gives a single instance of Contr[_] = Foo.Aux[Int, String, ?]
  • So compiler is searching for a Foo.Aux[Int, String, Boolean]
  • There is a single such instance provided by Foo
  • So the whole thing compiles

Here is my build.sbt in case I am missing something:

scalaVersion := "2.12.6"

scalacOptions := Seq(
  "-language:existentials",
  "-language:higherKinds",
  "-Ypartial-unification",  // EDIT
)

addCompilerPlugin("org.spire-math" %% "kind-projector" % "0.9.8")

您想出了一个有趣的解决方法,但最初的问题确实是一个错误:scala/bug#10849,已在 Scala 2.13 中修复:scala/scala#6573。不幸的是,它不能向后移植到 2.12,因为它改变了类型推断的工作方式,这是编译器的一个微妙部分,甚至没有指定。但是您可以使用 Scala 2.13.0-M4 或 2.13.0-M5 进行尝试。

这是我想出的一个解决方案:

trait Wrapper[A, B] { type Contract[_] }

object Wrapper {
  type Aux[A, B, C[_]] = Wrapper[A, B] { type Contract[_] = C[_] }
  // One instance, linking Int + String to Option
  implicit def instance[A, B](implicit ev1: A =:= Int, ev2: B =:= String): Wrapper.Aux[A, B, Option] = null

}

object Testing {

  def wrapperTest[A, B, X[_]](implicit ev: Wrapper.Aux[A, B, X]): X[Boolean] = ???

  // These compile now!!
  wrapperTest
  wrapperTest: Option[Boolean]

  // Do NOT compile, as expected
  // wrapperTest[Boolean, Char, Option]: Option[Boolean]
  // wrapperTest[Int, String, List]: Option[Boolean]

}

我不知道为什么它可以精确地工作,但它似乎是自由AB允许编译器专注于X[_]正确解析,然后限制AB发生在不同的级别上,因此我们最终实现了相同的功能。
