Data.Typeable.Internal

The representations of the types TyCon and TypeRep, and the function mkTyCon which is used by derived instances of Typeable to construct a TyCon.

Documentation

data TypeRep

A concrete representation of a (monomorphic) type. TypeRep supports reasonably efficient equality.

TypeRep !Fingerprint TyCon [TypeRep]

Typeable TypeRep

data TyCon

An abstract representation of a type constructor. TyCon objects can be built using mkTyCon.

Arguments

:: String

package name

-> String

module name

-> String

the name of the type constructor

-> TyCon

A unique TyCon object

Builds a TyCon object representing a type constructor. An implementation of Data.Typeable should ensure that the following holds:

  A==A' ^ B==B' ^ C==C' ==> mkTyCon A B C == mkTyCon A' B' C'

mkTyConApp :: TyCon -> [TypeRep] -> TypeRep

Applies a type constructor to a sequence of types

mkAppTy :: TypeRep -> TypeRep -> TypeRep

Adds a TypeRep argument to a TypeRep.

typeRepTyCon :: TypeRep -> TyCon

class Typeable a where

The class Typeable allows a concrete representation of a type to be calculated.

Methods

typeOf :: a -> TypeRep

Takes a value of type a and returns a concrete representation of that type. The value of the argument should be ignored by any instance of Typeable, so that it is safe to pass undefined as the argument.
