The Scala team at Lightbend is pleased to announce Scala 2.13.12.

The following changes are highlights of this release:

Feature: Quickfixes

For some errors and warnings, the compiler now suggests an edit that could fix the issue. Tooling such as IDEs can then offer the edits, or the compiler itself will make the change if run again with -quickfix.

  • Implement quickfixes, aka actionable diagnostics (via CodeAction) (#10406 by @eed3si9n)
  • Add -quickfix compiler option to apply quickfixes to source files (#10482 by @lrytz)
  • Add quickfixes to some warnings and errors (#10484 by @lrytz)

Align with Scala 3

  • Emit migration warnings under -Xsource:3 as fatal warnings, not errors (#10439 by @som-snytt, #10511)
    • -Xmigration will demote the errors to warnings
    • -Wconf:cat=scala3-migration:s will silence these errors/warnings altogether
  • Warn about @elidable under -Xsource:3 (#10377 by @som-snytt)

Collections

  • IndexedSeq#head now throws NoSuchElementException (not IndexOutOfBoundsException) (#10392 by @som-snytt)

Regression fixes

Compatibility

Upgrading from 2.12? Enable -Xmigration while upgrading to request migration advice from the compiler.
