In Scala, is there an easy way to convert a case class into a tuple?
Is there an easy way to convert a case class into a tuple? I can, of course, easily write boilerplate code to do this, but I mean without the boilerplate. What I'm really after is a way to easily make a case class lexicographically Ordered. I can achieve the goal for tuples by importing scala.math.Ordering.Implicits._, and voila, my tuples have an Ordering defined for them. But the implicits in scala.math.Ordering don't work for case classes in general. S-C How about calling unapply().get in the companion object? case class Foo(foo: String, bar: Int) val (str, in) = Foo.unapply(Foo("test", 123
