Description
This module defines the basic representation types and the conversion
functions to and from. A typical instance for a user-defined datatype
would be:
-- Example datatype data Exp = Const Int | Plus Exp Exp -- Auxiliary datatypes for constructor representations data Const data Plus instance Constructor Const where conName _ = "Const" instance Constructor Plus where conName _ = "Plus" -- Representable instance instance Representable Exp where type Rep Exp = C Const (Var Int) :+: C Plus (Rec Exp :*: Rec Exp) from (Const n) = L (C (Var n)) from (Plus e e') = R (C (Rec e :*: Rec e')) to (L (C (Var n))) = Const n to (R (C (Rec e :*: Rec e'))) = Plus e e'

class Constructor c whereSource
Class for datatypes that represent data constructors.
For non-symbolic constructors, only conName has to be defined.
Methods
conName :: t c p q a -> StringSource
conFixity :: t c p q a -> FixitySource
conIsRecord :: t c p q a -> BoolSource

| Constructor Tuple_Pair_ | |
| Constructor Maybe_Just_ | |
| Constructor Maybe_Nothing_ | |
| Constructor List_Cons_ | |
| Constructor List_Nil_ |
Datatype to represent the fixity of a constructor. An infix declaration
directly corresponds to an application of Infix.
