How to create a singleton object in Scala with runtime params

Question

I\'m trying to create a singleton object with parameters which are specified by runtime. Example:

object NetworkPusher {
  val networkAdress = ???
  ...
 }


        

Answer 1

Using lazy:

object Program {

  var networkAdress: String = _

  def main(args: Array[String]): Unit = {
    networkAdress = args(0)
    println(NetworkPusher.networkAdress)
  }

  object NetworkPusher {
    lazy val networkAdress = Program.networkAdress
  }
}

Answer 2

Singletons are initialized lazily.

scala> :pa
// Entering paste mode (ctrl-D to finish)

object Net {
  val address = Config.address
}
object Config { var address = 0L }

// Exiting paste mode, now interpreting.

defined object Net
defined object Config

scala> Config.address = "1234".toLong
Config.address: Long = 1234

scala> Net.address
res0: Long = 1234

FWIW.
