GHC.SYB.Utils

Description

GHC.Syb.Utils provides common utilities for the Ghc Api, either based on Data/Typeable or for use with Data.Generics over Ghc Api types.

example output of showData on parsedSource, renamedSource, and typecheckedSource for a trivial HelloWorld module, compared with ppr output:

Synopsis

Documentation

data Stage Source

Ghc Ast types tend to have undefined holes, to be filled by later compiler phases. We tag Asts with their source, so that we can avoid such holes based on who generated the Asts.

Instances

showData :: Data a => Stage -> Int -> a -> StringSource

Generic Data-based show, with special cases for GHC Ast types, and simplistic indentation-based layout (the Int parameter); showing abstract types abstractly and avoiding known potholes (based on the Stage that generated the Ast)

everythingStaged :: Stage -> (r -> r -> r) -> r -> GenericQ r -> GenericQ rSource

Like everything, but avoid known potholes, based on the Stage that generated the Ast.
