Showing

4 declarations
classclass GShow (t :: k -> Type) where
#

Show-like class for 1-type-parameter GADTs. GShow t => ... is equivalent to something like (forall a. Show (t a)) => .... The easiest way to create instances would probably be to write (or derive) an instance Show (T a), and then simply say:

instance GShow t where gshowsPrec = defaultGshowsPrec

Reading

7 declarations
classclass GRead (t :: k -> Type) where
#

Read-like class for 1-type-parameter GADTs. Unlike GShow, this one cannot be mechanically derived from a Read instance because greadsPrec must choose the phantom type based on the String being parsed.

typetype GReadS (t :: k -> Type) = String -> [(Some t, String)]
#

GReadS t is equivalent to ReadS (forall b. (forall a. t a -> b) -> b), which is in turn equivalent to ReadS (Exists t) (with data Exists t where Exists :: t a -> Exists t)
