Converting Companion Object with Implicit

Question

I want to "add" a field to a companion object without changing the companion object itself, using an implicit. In the following example, I want to be able to access the property "name" from object A. Is this possible?

implicit def a2b(???): ??? = B

object A
class A

object B {
    val name = "Bob"
}

Answer 1

Try this:

implicit def a2b(aObj: A.type): B.type = B
