Symbol literals are no longer supported.
The scala.Symbol class still exists, so a literal translation of the symbol literal 'xyz is Symbol("xyz"). However, it is recommended to use a plain string literal "xyz" instead. (The Symbol class will be deprecated and removed in the future). Example:
scalac Test.scala
-- Error: Test.scala:1:25 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 |@main def test = println('abc)
| ^
| symbol literal 'abc is no longer supported,
| use a string literal "abc" or an application Symbol("abc") instead,
| or enclose in braces '{abc} if you want a quoted expression.
| For now, you can also `import language.deprecated.symbolLiterals` to accept
| the idiom, but this possibility might no longer be available in the future.
