Documentation

data Some tag where Source #

Existential. This is type is useful to hide GADTs' parameters.

>>> data Tag :: * -> * where TagInt :: Tag Int; TagBool :: Tag Bool
>>> instance GShow Tag where gshowsPrec _ TagInt = showString "TagInt"; gshowsPrec _ TagBool = showString "TagBool"
>>> classify s = case s of "TagInt" -> [mkGReadResult TagInt]; "TagBool" -> [mkGReadResult TagBool]; _ -> []
>>> instance GRead Tag where greadsPrec _ s = [ (r, rest) | (con, rest) <-  lex s, r <- classify con ]

You can either use constructor:

>>> let x = Some TagInt
>>> x
Some TagInt

>>> case x of { Some TagInt -> "I"; Some TagBool -> "B" } :: String
"I"

or you can use functions

>>> let y = mkSome TagBool
>>> y
Some TagBool

>>> withSome y $ \y' -> case y' of { TagInt -> "I"; TagBool -> "B" } :: String
"B"

The implementation of mapSome is safe.

>>> let f :: Tag a -> Tag a; f TagInt = TagInt; f TagBool = TagBool
>>> mapSome f y
Some TagBool

but you can also use:

>>> withSome y (mkSome . f)
Some TagBool

>>> read "Some TagBool" :: Some Tag
Some TagBool

>>> read "mkSome TagInt" :: Some Tag
Some TagInt
