class Foo
// type is singleton type Bar.type
object Bar extends Foo {
def exc = (new Exception).printStackTrace
}
// type is structural type Foo{def exc: Unit}
val Baz = new Foo {
def exc = (new Exception).printStackTrace
}
// compare:
Bar.exc
Baz.exc
Singleton types get their own .class file. Structural types use reflection.
