Text.StringLike
Description
WARNING: This module is not intended for use outside the TagSoup library.
This module provides an abstraction for String's as used inside TagSoup. It allows TagSoup to work with String (list of Char), ByteString.Char8, ByteString.Lazy.Char8, Data.Text and Data.Text.Lazy.
- class (Typeable a, Eq a, IsString a) => StringLike a where
- fromString :: IsString a => String -> a
- castString :: (StringLike a, StringLike b) => a -> b
Documentation
