Parser

This module provides the generated Happy parser for Haskell. It exports a number of parsers which may be used in any library that uses the GHC API. A common usage pattern is to initialize the parser state with a given string and then parse that string:

    runParser :: DynFlags -> String -> P a -> ParseResult a
    runParser flags str parser = unP parser parseState
    where
      filename = "<interactive>"
      location = mkRealSrcLoc (mkFastString filename) 1 1
      buffer = stringToStringBuffer str
      parseState = mkPState flags buffer location
