Equality
A class for type-contexts which contain enough information to (at least in some cases) decide the equality of types occurring within them.
geq :: f a -> f b -> Maybe (a :~: b) Source #
Produce a witness of type-equality, if one exists.
A handy idiom for using this would be to pattern-bind in the Maybe monad, eg.:
extract :: GEq tag => tag a -> DSum tag -> Maybe a extract t1 (t2 :=> x) = do Refl <- geq t1 t2 return x
Or in a list comprehension:
extractMany :: GEq tag => tag a -> [DSum tag] -> [a] extractMany t1 things = [ x | (t2 :=> x) <- things, Refl <- maybeToList (geq t1 t2)]
(Making use of the DSum
type from Data.Dependent.Sum in both examples)
defaultEq :: GEq f => f a -> f b -> Bool Source #
If f
has a GEq
instance, this function makes a suitable default
implementation of '(==)'.
defaultNeq :: GEq f => f a -> f b -> Bool Source #
If f
has a GEq
instance, this function makes a suitable default
implementation of '(/=)'.
Total order comparison
class GEq f => GCompare f where Source #
Type class for comparable GADT-like structures. When 2 things are equal,
must return a witness that their parameter types are equal as well (GEQ
).
defaultCompare :: GCompare f => f a -> f b -> Ordering Source #
data GOrdering a b where Source #
A type for the result of comparing GADT constructors; the type parameters of the GADT values being compared are included so that in the case where they are equal their parameter types can be unified.
