Question

I have a base abstract class (trait). It has an abstract method foo(). It is extended and implemented by several derived classes. I want to create a trait that can be mixed into the derived classes so that it implements foo() and then calls the derived class s foo().

Something like:

trait Foo {
  def foo()
}

trait M extends Foo {
  override def foo() {
    println("M")
    super.foo()
  }
}

class FooImpl1 extends Foo {
  override def foo() {
    println("Impl")
  }
}

class FooImpl2 extends FooImpl1 with M

I tried self types and structural types, but I can t get it to work.

You were very close. Add the abstract modifier to M.foo, and you have the Stackable Trait pattern: http://www.artima.com/scalazine/articles/stackable_trait_pattern.html

trait Foo {
  def foo()
}

trait M extends Foo {
  abstract override def foo() {println("M"); super.foo()}
}

class FooImpl1 extends Foo {
  override def foo() {println("Impl")}
}

class FooImpl2 extends FooImpl1 with M
