      Type case is evil, but if you're going to do it you should at least do it accurately (with #shapeless's Typeable): https://github.com/milessabin/shapeless/blob/e6c5e714adede724ac319426b32b6c1aeb6c0b12/core/src/test/scala/shapeless/typeable.scala#L345 …

      @milessabin How does Typeable compare with TypeTag?

      @xeno_by it provides type safe cast Any => Option[T], recursively through T, including contents. Nothing else.

      @milessabin Would it be possible to implement Typeable on top of TypeTag?

      @xeno_by @milessabin Last time I tried using TypeTag for something similar, I hit concurrency issues. Is TypeTag thread safe?

      @xeno_by @milessabin OK, great. I was using 2.10 when I used it last. Will I get a lot of lock contention if I use them heavily?

      @xeno_by @milessabin Awesome! Last question :) Would this be fixed in 2.11?

          @tixxit @milessabin Almost certainly not in 2.11.0. We got this almost working even now, but locks are hard.

          @xeno_by @tixxit gotcha ... I'll stick with ClassTags until 2.12.
