Context handling

setContext :: Context -> Q ()

Sets the Context for the current module. This function, if called, must be called before any of the other TH functions in this module. Fails if that's not the case.

getContext :: Q Context

Gets the current Context. Also makes sure that the current module is initialised.

Emitting and invoking C code

The functions in this section let us access more the C file associated with the current module. They can be used to build additional features on top of the basic machinery. All of inline-c is based upon the functions defined here.

Emitting C code

emitVerbatim :: String -> DecsQ

Simply appends some string to the module's C file. Use with care.

Inlining C code

We use the Code data structure to represent some C code that we want to emit to the module's C file and immediately generate a foreign call to. For this reason, Code includes both some C definition, and enough information to be able to generate a foreign call -- specifically the name of the function to call and the Haskell type.

All the quasi-quoters work by constructing a Code and calling inlineCode.

data Code

Data type representing a list of C definitions with a typed and named entry function.

We use it as a basis to inline and call C code.

Constructors

Code

Fields

• codeCallSafety :: Safety

  Safety of the foreign call.

• codeType :: TypeQ

  Type of the foreign call.

• codeFunName :: String

  Name of the function to call in the code below.

• codeDefs :: String

  The C code.

inlineCode :: Code -> ExpQ

Inlines a piece of code inline. The resulting Exp will have the type specified in the codeType.

In practice, this function outputs the C code to the module's C file, and then inserts a foreign call of type codeType calling the provided codeFunName.

Example:

c_add :: Int -> Int -> Int
c_add = $(inlineCode $ Code
  TH.Unsafe                   -- Call safety
  [t| Int -> Int -> Int |]    -- Call type
  "francescos_add"            -- Call name
  -- C Code
  "int francescos_add(int x, int y) { int z = x + y; return z; }")

inlineExp

Arguments

:: Safety

Safety of the foreign call

-> TypeQ

Type of the foreign call

-> Type CIdentifier

Return type of the C expr

-> [(CIdentifier, Type CIdentifier)]

Parameters of the C expr

-> String

The C expression

-> ExpQ

Same as inlineCItems, but with a single expression.

c_cos :: Double -> Double
c_cos = $(inlineExp
  TH.Unsafe
  [t| Double -> Double |]
  (quickCParser_ "double" parseType)
  [("x", quickCParser_ "double" parseType)]
  "cos(x)")

inlineItems

Arguments

:: Safety

Safety of the foreign call

-> TypeQ

Type of the foreign call

-> Type CIdentifier

Return type of the C expr

-> [(CIdentifier, Type CIdentifier)]

Parameters of the C expr

-> String

The C items

-> ExpQ

Same as inlineCode, but accepts a string containing a list of C statements instead instead than a full-blown Code. A function containing the provided statement will be automatically generated.

c_cos :: Double -> Double
c_cos = $(inlineItems
  TH.Unsafe
  [t| Double -> Double |]
  (quickCParser_ "double" parseType)
  [("x", quickCParser_ "double" parseType)]
  "return cos(x);")
