+title: Dropped: Class Shadowing

+
+Scala so far allowed patterns like this:
+
+    class Base {
+      class Ops { ... }
+    }
+
+    class Sub extends Base {
+      class Ops { ... }
+    }
+
+Dotty rejects this with the error message:
+
+    6 |      class Ops {  }
+      |            ^
+      |class Ops cannot have the same name as class Ops in class Base -- class definitions cannot be overridden
+
+The issue is that the two `Ops` classes _look_ like one overrides the
+other, but classes in Scala cannot be overridden. To keep things clean
+(and its internal operations conistent) the Dotty compiler forces you
+to rename the inner classes so that their names are different.

+The special handling of the `DelayedInit` trait is no longer
+supported.
+
+One consequence is that the `App` class, which used `DelayedInit` is
+now partially broken. You can still use `App` for an easy and concise
+way to set up a main program. Example:
+
+    object HelloWorld extends App {
+      println("Hello, world!")
+    }
+
+However, the code is now run in the initializer of the object, which on
+some JVM's means that it will only be interpreted. So, better not use it
+for benchmarking! Also, if you want to access the command line arguments,
+you need to use an explicit `main` method for that.
+
+    object Hello {
+      def main(args: Array[String]) =
+        println(s"Hello, ${args(0)}")

+title: Dropped: Existential Types
+---
+
+Existential types using `forSome` have been dropped. The reasons for dropping them were:
+
+ - Existential types violate a type soundness principle on which DOT
+   and Dotty are constructed. That principle says that every the
+   prefix (`p`, respectvely `S`) of a type selection `p.T` or `S#T`
+   must either come from a value constructed at runtime or refer to a
+   type that is known to have only good bounds.
+
+ - Existential types create many difficult feature interactions
+   with other Scala constructs.
+
+ - Existential types have large overlap with path-dependent types,
+   so the gain of having them is relatively minor.
+
+Existential types that can be expressed using only wildcards (but not
+`forSome`) are still supported, but are treated as refined types.
+For instance, the type
+
+    Map[_ <: AnyRef, Int]
+
+is treated as the type `Map`, where the first type parameter
+is upper-bounded by `AnyRef` and the second type parameter is an alias
+of `Int`.
+
+When reading classfiles compiled with _scalac_, Dotty will do a best
+effort to approximate existential types with its own types. It will
+issue a warning is a precise emulation is not possible.

+The limit of 22 for the maximal number of parameters of function types
+has been dropped.  Functions can now have an arbitrary number of

+The previous, experimental macro system has been dropped. Instead,

+concepts: `inline` and `meta`.

+title: Dropped: General Type Projection
+---
+
+Scala so far allowed general type projection `T#A` where `T` is an arbitrary type
+and `A` names a type member of `T`.
+
+Dotty allows this only if `T` is a class type. The change was made because
+unrestricted type projection is [unsound](https://github.com/lampepfl/dotty/issues/1050).
+
+The restriction rule out the [type-level encoding of compbinator
+ calculus](https://michid.wordpress.com/2010/01/29/scala-type-level-encoding-of-the-ski-calculus/). It also rules out the previous encodings of type
+lambdas using structural types with projection as application.  Type
+ lambdas are now [directly supported](../type-lambdas.md) in Dotty.
