class Subtype sup sub where Source #

Structural subtype relationship

sub is a (structural) subtype of sup, if its fields are a subset of those of sup.

Minimal complete definition

super | smash, upcast

Methods

super :: Lens' sub sup Source #

Structural subtype lens. Given a subtype relationship sub :< sup, we can focus on the sub structure of sup.

>>> human ^. super @Animal
Animal {name = "Tunyasz", age = 50}
>>> set (super @Animal) (Animal "dog" 10) human
Human {name = "dog", age = 10, address = "London"}

upcast :: sub -> sup Source #

Cast the more specific subtype to the more general supertype

>>> upcast human :: Animal
Animal {name = "Tunyasz", age = 50}
>>> upcast (upcast human :: Animal) :: Human
...
... The type 'Animal' is not a subtype of 'Human'.
... The following fields are missing from 'Animal':
... address
...

smash :: sup -> sub -> sub Source #

Plug a smaller structure into a larger one

>>> smash (Animal "dog" 10) human
Human {name = "dog", age = 10, address = "London"}
